The war between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip continues for the 109th day in a row, with fierce battles taking place in Khan Yunis, the largest city in the southern Gaza Strip, in which two hundred Israeli soldiers have been killed since the start of the ground operation in late October. In parallel, pressure is increasing on Israel in preparation for a post-war plan that includes establishing a Palestinian state. Regarding northern Israel, French Minister of the Armed Forces Sebastien Lecornu stressed on Monday that his country seeks to avoid “escalation” on the border between Israel and Lebanon.
