Israel�s top general said Tuesday the military is prepared to give the country�s political leadership wide latitude in determining the next phase of the Gaza war, after President Donald Trump unveiled his long-awaited peace plan.

Touring Gaza City with senior commanders, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir described the ongoing offensive as a turning point. �The campaign in Gaza City leads to new opportunities and brings us closer to achieving the goals of the war,� Zamir said, according to remarks released by the army.

Joined by Southern Command chief Maj. Gen. Yaniv Asor, Military Advocate General Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, and 162nd Division commander Brig. Gen. Sagiv Dahan, Zamir highlighted both military resolve and political flexibility.

�We must continue to excel in military action and lead with professionalism,� Zamir said. �The IDF will enable the political echelon flexibility in any decision regarding the conduct of the campaign.�
