The British newspaper "Financial Times" quoted former Israeli intelligence officer Michael Milstein as saying that Israel's return to launching a military operation in Al-Shifa Hospital is evidence of the lack of a strategy in this war.

But the article quotes an Israeli officer that sometimes “this technology incorrectly flagged civilians as wanted by Hamas fighters.”

As for the Washington Post, it said that the Israeli army’s talk of dismantling 20 out of 24 battalions owned by the Hamas movement “does not mean the destruction of the movement, as some of its groups are still capable of launching deadly attacks similar to the violent fighting that took place this week in the north.”

The newspaper commented that the politics of war, and the growing disagreement between Israel and the United States over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, “obscured the changing battlefield, which looks very different from what it did just a month or two ago.”

In the Israeli newspaper "Haaretz", a report indicated that the United States' choice to abstain from voting in the Security Council two days ago, along with the American assertion that the resolution was not binding, "demonstrates that frustration in Washington is approaching the boiling point."

The newspaper said that the White House "is well aware that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is preoccupied with petty politics, and is working to create an artificial crisis, which President Biden is seriously considering how to curb."
