Israel prepared to ‘finish job’ in Gaza and remove Palestinians, minister says

Israel's defence minister, Israel Katz, has stated that the country is prepared to resume full-scale war in Gaza and potentially remove its 2 million Palestinian residents. This announcement suggests a significant escalation in the conflict, which could have severe consequences for the region's stability. The potential displacement of Palestinians could also lead to a humanitarian crisis, straining resources and international aid. This development is likely to impact global markets, particularly those sensitive to geopolitical tensions and regional instability.
