Israel Opposes Pakistan in Gaza Force
Israel does not want Pakistan to be part of a team that would help keep the peace in Gaza.
Israel thinks Hamas, a group in Gaza, has connections with some groups in Pakistan.
Israel says that before any peace plan can work, Hamas must be stopped completely.
The US has asked some countries, including Pakistan, to send soldiers to Gaza, but many countries are not sure they want to fight Hamas.
Israel says it will do what it needs to do if the world does not help stop Hamas.
Israel opposes Pakistan's involvement in a proposed International Stabilisation Force (ISF) for Gaza.
Israel's Ambassador to India, Reuven Azar, stated that Israel is not comfortable with Pakistani military participation.
Israel insists that Hamas must be completely dismantled before any political or reconstruction process can begin.
Multiple countries have expressed reluctance to participate in the proposed force, citing unwillingness to engage in combat with Hamas.
Israel's immediate priorities include the return of all hostages and the dismantling of Hamas's military and political infrastructure.
