The timetable for the war on Gaza from Netanyahu’s point of view... An Israeli channel reveals the final date for operations
On Wednesday evening, December 13, 2023, a Hebrew channel published what it said was an Israeli timetable for the aggression against the Gaza Strip, showing that violent military operations may end at the end of January 2024.
Israeli Channel 12 said that Israel has entered the third month of the war, and the American administration is pressuring Tel Aviv, saying that the “hourglass” for the aggression is about to run out, and the visit of US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan to Israel aims to discuss the time frame for ending the war.
According to the Israeli timetable, published by the channel, “it is expected that by the end of January 2024, Israel will end the phase of violent fighting.”
America is pressing to end the war on the Gaza Strip by Christmas, that is, the beginning of January 2024, but in light of the current situation, Tel Aviv does not see that as possible, according to the Israeli channel, which indicated that the Israelis say that a few more weeks will be needed after the end of the fighting, to complete the withdrawal of forces from the heart of Gaza and deploy them in the defensive lines, some inside the Strip and some outside it.
As for the second phase, the channel said that it is expected to be longer, and includes “the completion of the elimination of the Hamas movement.” Estimates indicate that it may extend until the end of 2024, and include the destruction of the movement’s military capabilities, through operations and raids by the Israeli army.
It added: "The most important thing is that Israel aims to maintain security control (over Gaza) in the foreseeable future."
The channel considered, "This seems to be a realistic timetable that both Israel and the United States can agree on, but in addition to that, the Americans see great importance for the humanitarian issue of the people of Gaza."
Tel Aviv plans to agree to reopen the Kerem Shalom crossing, to bring aid into the Gaza Strip, as a thank you to the Americans, according to the Israeli channel.
On Thursday, December 14, 2023, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan arrived in Tel Aviv to hold talks on the war on the Gaza Strip, in light of the increasing intensity of disputes between the American administration and the Israeli occupation government.
Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insists on continuing the war on the Gaza Strip, despite American pressure and popular protests around the world.
On December 12, 2023, US President Joe Biden said that Israel was “losing the support of the international community” as the death toll in Gaza rose.
On Wednesday, December 13, 2023, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the toll of the Israeli aggression on the Strip had risen to 18,608 dead and 50,594 injured, since last October 7, stressing that the occupation had committed hundreds of massacres against civilians, as a result of the bombing of their homes and shooting them in the street.
