Israel hit Gaza with more airstrikes even as British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak became the third western leader to visit Tel Aviv after US President Joe Biden and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to signal his support for Israeli military\u2019s assault while calling for easing the plight of civilians trapped in the fighting.<\/p>\n
Israel made clear its bombings will not abate. \u201cIn the Gaza Strip, every place where Hamas has touched or is touching will be struck and destroyed. We really are a war machine that knows how to do two or three times what is being done now,\u201d said an Israeli military officer.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Iranian military chief Mohammad Baqeri in a phone call to Qatari Defence Minister Khalid bin Mohamed Al Attiyah urged regional countries to stop the US from transferring arms and equipment to Israel from its bases in the Middle East, reported IRNA. Sunak borrowed a phrase associated with Winston Churchill to promise backing to \u201cin its darkest hour\u201d and maintained he was aware that Israel was \u201ctaking every precaution to avoid harming civilians in direct contrast to the terrorists of Hamas, which seeks to put civilians in harm\u2019s way\u201d.<\/p>\n
Biden flew directly back to the US from Israel after being forced to cancel the second leg of his visit to Jordan as a quartet of Arab leaders refused to meet him due to the bombing of the hospital in Gaza. Biden\u2019s visit helped in Egypt agreeing to allow 20 aid trucks to reach Gaza in the coming days. This, however, is much less than 100 trucks required per day, as per UN estimates.<\/p>\n
Israel\u2019s Arab neighbours, on the other hand, turned down Israel\u2019s game plan to drive out all of Gaza\u2019s 22 lakh residents to enable the Israeli security forces to hunt down Hamas militants as well as dismantle its infrastructure of bunkers and bomb-proof tunnels<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
