Israel will continue to escalate its ground operations in the city of Gaza, according to Israeli IDF spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari.
"We will reach more and more Hamas strongholds," he stated.
Hagari remarks that the residents of the Gaza Strip who are using the humanitarian route to head south "see that Hamas has lost control" of the northern part of Gaza, making the south safer.
Despite a relative decrease in rocket attacks on Israel from Gaza, he urged the public not to become complacent.
In response to Hamas claims that dozens of IDF armored vehicles were disabled, Hagari said their readiness was at 90%, and vehicles were repaired under field conditions or sent to Israel for more extensive repairs.
