The Israeli defence minister says Israel has “moved to a new phase” in the war against Hamas, adding that “the earth in Gaza shook” through the military operations.
In a statement from his office, quoted by Israeli media, Gallant said, “We attacked above ground and below ground, we attacked terror operatives of all ranks, in all places.”
“The commands to the forces are clear: The operation will continue until a new order,” he added.
Gaza residents reported experiencing the heaviest bombardment overnight since the war started, while UN officials have warned that Israel’s attacks could lead to thousands of more Palestinians being killed.
