Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz vowed on Tuesday to force the displacement of Gaza City’s residents and up to one million people in the territory should any Israeli be abducted in the future. Speaking at a memorial for the 1973 Yom Kippur War, Katz also threatened the destruction of infrastructure as part of this potential military response.
The minister’s remarks follow the October 2025 ceasefire, which he stated was agreed upon solely to secure the release of hostages. Katz indicated that Israel anticipates a return to full-scale conflict in the region following the conclusion of current diplomatic efforts.
