Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is convening a limited security meeting to discuss military plans for Gaza, Channel 12 reports.
Defense Minister Israel Katz, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir, and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer are in attendance, according to Channel 12.
The meeting comes following yesterday’s cabinet meeting, during which Netanyahu told ministers he intends to seek cabinet approval for a full re-occupation of the Gaza Strip, despite opposition from some in the military.
