Israel Expands Ground Operations in Gaza, Says War in South Will Be as Big as North
The Israeli military said Sunday that its ground operations have expanded to every part of the Gaza Strip and vowed its assault on the south will be just as big as it was in the north.
“It will be no less powerful than [the operations in northern Gaza], it will have no less results,” said Israeli Defense Forces Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, according to The Times of Israel.
“We have the capabilities to do it in the most thorough way, and just as we did it with strength and thoroughly in the north of the Gaza Strip, we are also doing it now in the south of the Gaza Strip, and we also continue to deepen the achievements in the north of the Gaza Strip,” Halevi added.
