Part 6/11:
In a dramatic escalation of the Israel-Hamas conflict, Israel has launched its largest ground offensive in Gaza to date. The operation involves tens of thousands of Israeli troops supported by tanks, artillery, and air strikes, reflecting a concerted effort to dismantle Hamas’s military capabilities.
Overnight, Israeli forces made significant advances into Gaza City, advancing deep into urban areas amid relentless bombardments. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz characterized the operation as a decisive phase, declaring, "Gaza is burning" and affirming Israel’s commitment to continue until its military objectives are achieved. The scale of mobilization is unprecedented, with approximately 130,000 reserve soldiers called up, of whom about 80% have reported for duty.
