Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned Friday that Gaza city could "turn into Rafah and Beit Hanoun," areas that were destroyed earlier in the war, unless Hamas agrees to Israel's terms. This comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he would approve the military's plans to seize Gaza City.

Israel’s defense minister says Gaza City could be destroyed unless Hamas accepts Israel’s terms. Earlier this week, Hamas accepted a ceasefire proposal by Arab mediators, almost identical to the one Israel accepted before talks stalled last month.
