Israel Declares INDEFINITE Military Stay In Gaza, Lebanon & Syria| 'Protecting Settlers' the goal [Video]

Israel Declares INDEFINITE Military Stay In Gaza, Lebanon & Syria| 'Protecting Settlers' the goal

Israel's Minister of Military Affairs, Israel Katz, has declared that troops will remain in Gaza, Lebanon, and southern Syria indefinitely. He claimed this military presence serves as a "buffer" to protect Israeli settlers. Despite ceasefires and truce deals, Israel continues occupying territory, intensifying operations in Gaza while rejecting peace negotiations. Katz's statement signals a long-term strategy of control, not just retaliation against Hamas. Since March 18, over 1,600 Palestinians have been killed following Israel's resumption of military operations, part of a broader campaign that has killed over 51,000 since October 7. #Israel #Gaza #Lebanon #Syria #MiddleEastConflict #IsraelKatz #IDF #MilitaryOccupation #Hamas #Ceasefire #Hostages #WarOnGaza #Palestine #IsraelNews #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #InternationalLaw #HumanRights #Hezbollah #OccupiedTerritories #GazaUnderAttack #MiddleEastPolitics #UNResponse #PeaceProcess #MilitaryStrategy #PermanentOccupation #SettlerViolence #TruceViolation #WarCrimes #GazaCrisis Also Read Rawhi Mushtaha, Hamas Govt Chief In Gaza, 'Eliminated' In Israeli Airstrikes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/rawhi-mushtaha-hamas-govt-chief-in-gaza-eliminated-in-israeli-airstrikes-3951135.html?ref=DMDesc Israeli Military Chief Signals Potential Ground Operation Amid Escalating Tensions with Hezbollah :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-military-prepares-ground-operation-lebanon-011-3945045.html?ref=DMDesc Israeli Military Drafting Ultra-Orthodox Men May Destabilize Netanyahu's Government :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-military-to-draft-ultra-orthodox-men-011-3880659.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~GR.344~

The humanitarian toll has surged, with thousands of Palestinians killed or injured.
