Germany's Chancellor says 'no longer understands' Israel's goal in Gaza

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said Monday that he "no longer understands" the Israeli army's objective in Gaza amid a stepped-up offensive in the Palestinian territory.

"I no longer understand what the Israeli army is doing in the Gaza Strip, with what goal the civilian population is being impacted to such an extent," he said.
