Israeli plan to extend control in Gaza provokes German concern
The German government has voiced concerns regarding Israel's plans to extend military control in Gaza. This marks a shift in Berlin's traditionally supportive stance towards Israel, particularly in light of Prime Minister Netanyahu's directive to increase control to 70 percent of the enclave. The expansion raises fears of a return to full-scale conflict and worsens conditions for the already struggling population of Gaza.
