German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is planning to visit Israel, which is fighting Hamas militants, in the coming days. Bild reports this with reference to Israeli sources.


This visit will take place in the context of Israel's struggle against Hamas militants and may even take place next Tuesday, October 17.


Earlier, we reported that Annalena Baerbock, the German Foreign Minister, expressed her full support for Israel during her visit to the country and expressed outrage over the situation in the Gaza Strip. This was reported by DW.


There she met not only with government officials but also with relatives of abducted civilians. Among those killed and kidnapped by Hamas militants are German citizens, whose release the federal government is paying special attention to.
