Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described the ongoing ground operation in Gaza as the 'second stage of the war' and stated that troops on the ground are 'only the beginning'. He also warned the civilian population in northern Gaza to move to the south. Israel's defence minister confirmed that Israeli forces were now fighting in the air, sea, and on the ground, and expressed willingness to do 'whatever it takes' to free the hostages taken by Hamas fighters.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the ongoing ground operation in Gaza is the 'second stage of the war' after additional forces entered the territory. He described having troops on the ground as 'only the beginning' and said Israel's military would exert every effort to return those who have been taken captive.
Gaza came under heavy bombardment on Friday night, with Israeli fighter jets hitting 150 underground targets in the north, the IDF said on Saturday. The Palestinian telecom provider, Paltel, said the bombardment caused 'complete disruption' of internet, cellular and landline services as the besieged enclave's 2.3 million people were largely cut off from contact with the outside world.
