In a televised briefing on Wednesday, Israel’s military spokesperson, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, stated that Hamas had lost control of the northern part of Gaza as thousands of inhabitants have gone south.

“50,000 Gazans moved from the northern to the southern parts of the Gaza Strip. Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari stated, “They are moving because they recognize that Hamas has lost power in the north.” “Hamas has lost control and is continuing to lose control in the north.”

Following a Hamas incursion on southern Israel on October 7, during which militants murdered 1,400 people—mostly civilians—and captured over 240 prisoners, according to Israeli accounts, Israel launched an attack on Gaza. The deadliest phase of the long-running Israel-Palestinian conflict has broken out in this war.

De Sutter stated that to improve political and economic relations, the European Union should immediately revoke its association agreement with Israel.

She said that the EU should forbid the entry of aggressive settlers, politicians, and troops guilty of war crimes, as well as impose an import embargo on goods from occupied Palestinian territory.

She also suggested that Belgium cut all financial support to Hamas while simultaneously increasing financing for the International Criminal Court in The Hague to look into the bombings.

“This group supports terrorism.” Sanctions on the businesses and individuals that give money to Hamas are necessary since terror costs money, according to De Sutter. UN representatives and the G7 countries increased their calls for a humanitarian ceasefire in the fighting as the conflict moves into its second month, hoping to lessen the suffering of those left in Gaza, where basic supplies are running low and houses have been destroyed.

More than 10,000 people have reportedly died, 40% of whom were youngsters, according to Palestinian officials.
