Former CIA chief David Petraeus said in an interview with Sky News that Israel should enter Rafah in order to destroy Hamas.
According to him, Israel must establish "fenced communities" in Gaza for the Palestinian residents, and "not make the mistakes we made in Iraq."
Similar to the position of the White House, Petraeus added that the Netanyahu government should prepare for "the day after" the war.
The Israeli military has ordered the entire city of Tyre, along with surrounding Palestinian camps, villages and neighbourhoods, to evacuate immediately, publishing a detailed map alongside the order on Wednesday.
Israel said on Wednesday it had killed Hamas's newly appointed armed wing chief in Gaza, days after it killed his predecessor, while intensifying military pressure in Gaza and expanding operations in Lebanon.
Israel said on Tuesday it had attacked Hamas’ new armed wing chief, who it said was appointed just days earlier after Israel killed his predecessor, as it steps up military pressure in Gaza and expands ground operations in Lebanon.
