The Council will also discuss the issue of establishing the so -called humanitarian city in the southern Gaza Strip.

Netanyahu had ordered the Chief of Staff of the Army Eyal Zamir to prepare an alternative plan for the plan he presented at the last meeting, to be an operation and applicable within a short time.

Differences between the two leaderships

This, and Reuters news agency quoted Israeli officials as saying that the plan to establish what is known as a humanitarian city in southern Gaza was raising differences between the political and security leaders.
