Israel Prepares for Gaza Invasion
In a determined response to the recent wave of violence that left hundreds of Israelis dead, the Israelis military announced on Tuesday that it had successfully retaken full control of the border with Gaza. The operation comes after Hamas militants beached defences over the weekend and unleashed chaos in nearby communities.
Richard Hecht, IDF spokesman, noted no Gaza Strip entries since Monday, a significant security achievement, but warned of potential Palestinian attackers inside Israel.
Israel military efforts found in 1,500 militant bodies on Israel soil, capturing hundreds more during the operation. Despite these gains, sporadic clashes persist along the border since Hama’s SAturday assault.
Recent clashes in Sa’ad and Kissufim near Gaza continue with ongoing Israel airstrikes.
The toll on both sides is staggering: Israel reports 900 deaths and 2,600 injuries, while Gaza has seen 687 deaths and 3,800 injuries due to Israeli counter-attacks.
Israel called up 300,000 reservists in preparation for a potential ground invasion of Gaza, intensifying military efforts with established infrastructure for further operations.
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed the nation’s determination, stating, “What Hamas will face will be hash and terrible. We are only at the beginning.”
As tensions continue to mount in the region, the international community is closely monitoring developments, hoping for a swift resolution to the crisis.
