The UN official asserted in her post that the only way Israel would cease its campaign to uproot Hamas from the southern Gazan city of Rafah is if it were forced to stop.

“Be sure: Israel will not stop this madness until WE make it stop. Member states must impose #sanctions, arms embargo and suspend diplo/political relations with Israel till it ceases its assault.”

Albanese comments come after Israel said that it would continue its military offensive against Hamas in Rafah regardless of the International Court of Justice’s (ICJ) verdict that Israel must halt its actions in the city.

The new battalion will enable a larger deployment of the Iron Dome batteries and better Israel's defense, the military further said.
