                                    Defence Minister Yoav Gallant on Thursday outlined Israel's plans for the next stage of its war in Gaza, with a new, more targeted approach in the northern section of the enclave and continued pursuit of Hamas leaders in the south. Earlier, thousands of Hamas supporters attended the funeral of deputy commander Saleh al-Arouri, who was killed in an apparent Israeli air strike on an apartment in Beirut.
