IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari said that the country’s army cooperates with the United States, but all decisions regarding operations in the Gaza Strip are made solely by the Jewish state. This was reported by TASS.
According to him, Israel is in daily contact with the United States and the countries also have a plan and understanding of the situation in the Middle East.
“We cooperate on all these issues, but ultimately this is a war waged by the State of Israel, we receive instructions from the Israeli government, and the US government understands this,” Hagari said.
Previously US President Joe Biden statedHe said the implementation of Israel’s agreements with the Palestinian group Hamas on the release of hostages and a temporary ceasefire was only the beginning of the process, but so far everything was going well.
He emphasized that a two-state solution must be strongly pursued to allow Israelis and Palestinians “to live side by side with equal freedom and dignity for the two peoples.”
Previously Hamas launched first hostages.
