Israeli soldiers have been called back from Southern Israel after sparking outrage over the recent aggression that killed seven aid workers. The US sent a particularly strong message that civilians need to be protected and that Israel needs to allow more aid into the besieged territory.
Hammas insist on a full withdrawal of IDF soldiers, something Israel in not prepared to facilitate, and it is not yet known whether the partial withdrawal of soldiers is some sort of compromise ahead of peace talks or a way to appease global outrage.
