(1) Y Mekelberg: With Gaza escalation, Israel risks ‘sacrificing hostages and its standing in the world’ – YouTube
The Israeli military stepped up its bombardment of Gaza City overnight, ahead of a key meeting between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his ministers on a potential ground operation to seize the enclave’s largest city.
