The Israeli Broadcasting Authority reported, Tuesday, October 10, 2023, that the heads of the government coalition in Tel Aviv unanimously supported the formation of an “emergency government” and authorized Netanyahu to work on its formation in conjunction with the war waged by the occupation against the Palestinian resistance.

This comes after a member of the extreme right in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition government called for the inclusion of politicians opposed to the government, as part of efforts to stabilize Israel, which is waging war on Gaza, as Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said in a blog post on social media: National emergency government now!

The head of the “National Camp” bloc in the Knesset, Ze’ev Elkin, said, according to what was reported by Palestinian media: “We asked to form an emergency government from the beginning, and the ball has been in Netanyahu’s hands for several days, and we are prepared for this matter because it is very important for the internal bloc, and it is important (as a message) to our enemies." 

There is no partisan policy in this, and we have not set coalition conditions, nor are we looking for positions, but we want one thing, which is to influence decisions, and I hope this will happen during the day, and there is no reason it did not happen last Saturday evening.”

Gantz conditioned his joining the government on the formation of a mini-ministerial council (cabinet) to manage the war, while the Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, rejected this condition, saying that “the former army chiefs of staff, Gantz and Eisenkot, did not demonstrate capabilities that justify relying on them, and they are partners in the failure that led to The sudden Palestinian attack, last Saturday.

For his part, opposition leader Yair Lapid made it a condition for joining an emergency government to remove the two extremist and fascist ministers, Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir, from the cabinet.

This comes at a time when Israeli occupation aircraft renewed their raids on various areas in the Gaza Strip, targeting its north and south. The occupation army said that it bombed 200 targets in Gaza and Khan Yunis during the night.

On Monday, October 9, 2023, the occupation army carried out a massacre in the Jabalia camp in the Gaza Strip, and the Ministry of Health in the Strip said that dozens of martyrs and wounded were killed in an Israeli air strike on the camp.

Confrontations continue between Palestinian resistance factions and the occupation. At dawn on Saturday, October 7, 2023, Hamas and other Palestinian factions in Gaza launched the “Al-Aqsa Flood” military operation against Israel. “In response to the continuing attacks by Israeli forces and settlers against the Palestinian people, their property and their sanctities,” especially Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem.

The resistance factions were able to penetrate into many settlements in the Gaza envelope area, and in return, the Israeli army began Operation “Iron Swords” and continues to launch intensive raids on many areas in Gaza, which is inhabited by more than two million Palestinians who suffer from deteriorating living conditions as a result of an ongoing Israeli siege since 2007.

The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip reported, in its latest statistics as of this morning, that the number of martyrs had risen to 788 and wounded to 4,100 as a result of Israeli strikes since the start of the Al-Aqsa Deluge Battle.

While Israeli media reported that the number of Israeli deaths in the confrontation with the Palestinian factions reached 900, and 2,616 were wounded.
