There’s enough going on in Protective Edge that each paper finds a different aspect of the operation to focus on in Thursday’s papers (except that, sadly, all three have the pictures of the five soldiers killed since Tuesday night).
Yedioth Ahronoth uses its front page to answer those who ask “What’s the goal of all this?” with the headline “The goal: A temporary ceasefire without leaving Gaza.”
Haaretz’s main story focuses on the world’s reaction to Operation Protective Edge. “UN rights council to form commission to investigate Israel for war crimes in Gaza; Kerry leaves for Cairo without a breakthrough,” reads the lengthy headline.
Israel Hayom decides to dedicate its first pages to boosting the morale of the Israeli home front. “Israel the beautiful,” the front page headline declares, and its first two pages are dedicated to the funeral of Max Steinberg, the lone soldier from Los Angeles who was killed in Gaza.
