Offensive: Israel’s new military operation in the Gaza Strip

Israel has begun a renewed advance with ground troops into the north of the Gaza Strip. Hamas attempted to regroup in the Jabalia area, the army said.

Ahead of the October 7th anniversary of the massacre by Hamas and other extremists in Israel, the Israeli army has launched another ground offensive in the north of the Gaza Strip. The army said tank units had advanced into the Jabalia area in the northeast of the coastal strip since the night. The information could not initially be independently verified. There was initially no information from Hamas.

Hamas tried to regroup in the Jabalia area, the army emphasized. The area was surrounded by Israeli forces. The photos released by the army of battle tanks driving through sandy terrain resemble those from the start of the ground offensive at the end of October last year.

On October 7, 2023, terrorists from Hamas and other extremist groups killed more than 1,200 people in Israel and kidnapped around 250 others as hostages in the Gaza Strip. This was the trigger for the Gaza war, in which around 42,000 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have been killed so far, according to the Hamas-controlled health authority. The coastal strip, densely populated with a good 2.1 million inhabitants, was largely reduced to rubble.
