Israel military's recent announcement to pause fighting during daytime hours along a route in southern Gaza to ensure humanitarian aid deliveries has irked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Israeli PM found the tactical break during the war against Hamas “unacceptable”, and he also received assurance that “there is no” change in the military's policy and “fighting in Rafah continues as planned”, reported AP, citing an Israeli official.
Later, Netanyahu openly criticised the military as Israeli television channels quoted him as saying, “We have a country with an army, not an army with a country.”
Netanyahu's statement came in light of Israeli military's Sunday announcement on tactical pause during daytime along a route in southern Gaza.
