Katz threatens to destroy the towers of Gaza City.. "The gates of hell have now been opened"

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant threatened today, Friday, to destroy the towers of Gaza City, adding that his government is opening "the gates of hell now on the city," as part of the plan approved to reoccupy it amid the ongoing genocide for 22 months.

Gallant added in a statement: "The gates of hell are now open on Gaza, and the first evacuation notice for a tall building in Gaza City has been delivered before the attack." Vowing to escalate, the Israeli Defense Minister said: "When the door is opened, it will not be closed, and the activity of the Israeli army will increase until Hamas accepts Israel's conditions to end the war, foremost of which is the release of all hostages, disarmament, or else they will be eliminated."

Gallant's statements come despite Hamas agreeing on August 18 to a proposal from mediators regarding a partial ceasefire and prisoner exchange in Gaza, yet the occupying state did not respond to the mediators, despite the terms matching a previous American proposal that Tel Aviv had accepted.
