Word of the decision emerged as an Israeli official said prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu had decided to send negotiators to resume ceasefire talks over Gaza. Diplomatic efforts aimed at ending the nine-month war in Gaza appear to be stirring back to life after weeks of little movement. The night before, the militant Hamas group said it gave mediators its latest response to a US-backed proposal for a phased ceasefire.
Fighting has intensified between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah, with Hezbollah saying on Thursday that it fired more than 200 rockets and exploding drones into northern Israel to avenge the killing of a senior commander in an Israeli airstrike the day before. The strikes have raised fears of a potentially even more devastating war in the Middle East. Hezbollah has said it will halt its attacks if there is a ceasefire between Hamas – a fellow Iran-backed ally – and Israel.
The Israeli anti-settlement monitoring Peace Now said the government’s Higher Planning Council had approved or advanced plans for 5,295 homes in dozens of settlements across the occupied West Bank. On Wednesday, Peace Now said Israel approved the largest seizure of land in the West Bank in over three decades.
