Israeli Minister Calls for Adherence to War Objectives Amidst Rising Tensions

Israeli Minister Orit Struck stated, as reported by Channel 7, that the government must adhere to all objectives set for the ongoing conflict, warning against being deceived by partial or misleading achievements.

She remarked, "We must not settle for less than the defined objectives for the war, and we should reject any attempts to present us with illusory achievements regarding the elimination of 200 Hamas operatives in Rafah," referring to what she described as attempts to exaggerate results on the ground that do not align with a decisive strategic outcome.

Struck's comments reflect increasing tensions within Israeli political circles regarding the management of the Gaza conflict, amid criticism from far-right factions about the slow pace of military progress and the lack of decisive results thus far.
