Nava Freiberg is The Times of Israel's deputy diplomatic correspondent.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will convene his security cabinet at 6 p.m. tomorrow at his office in Jerusalem, according to the Prime Minister’s Office.
During a three-hour security discussion among a smaller group yesterday, Netanyahu was presented with options for continued military operations in Gaza by IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir.
The cabinet is reportedly expected to approve a full military occupation of the Strip during tomorrow’s meeting, despite Zamir and army officials warning against the move.
