Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announces the deployment of ground forces into Gaza, expanding attacks from air and sea. The intense bombardment has cut off communications in Gaza, allowing Israel to control the narrative. The military releases images of tank columns and bombed Hamas tunnels. Pressure mounts on the government to secure the release of hostages held by Hamas.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has told his nation that the military has opened a “second stage” in the war against Hamas by sending ground forces into Gaza and expanding attacks from the ground, air and sea.Mr Netanyahu added: “It will be long and difficult. We are ready.”An Israeli bombardment, described by Gaza residents as the most intense of the war, has knocked out most communications in the territory.
The escalation brought more domestic pressure on Israel’s government to bring about the release of dozens of hostages seized in the October 7 Hamas attack, amid concerns they were being held underground. “This is the second stage of the war, whose objectives are clear: to destroy the military and governmental capabilities of Hamas and bring the hostages home,” he said in his first time taking questions from journalists since the war began.He did not address calls for a ceasefire.
Early in the war, Israel amassed hundreds of thousands of troops along the border. Until now, troops had conducted brief nightly ground incursions before returning to Israel.October 28, 2023 Some civilians were using their bare hands to pull injured people from the rubble and loading them into personal cars or donkey carts.
More than 1.4 million people across Gaza have fled their homes, nearly half crowding into UN schools and shelters, following repeated warnings by the Israeli military that they would be in grave danger if they remained in northern Gaza. The intensified air and ground campaign raised new concerns about hostages dragged into Gaza. On Saturday, hundreds of relatives gathered in Tel Aviv and demanded that the government put the return of their loved ones ahead of Israel’s military objectives.
Mr Guterres said in a statement he was “surprised by an unprecedented escalation of the bombardments and their devastating impacts” in Gaza.
