Israel announced that it is expanding ground operations throughout the Gaza Strip.
"The IDF is resuming and expanding the ground operation against Hamas strongholds throughout the Gaza Strip," IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari said at a press conference on Sunday.
According to Al Jazeera, Hagari also emphasized the importance of air support provided by the Air Force to ground forces, saying that airstrikes against terrorist headquarters, weapons production facilities, terrorist tunnels and missile launch sites limit the threats posed against the operation. earthly.
"Our policy is clear, we will strike with force against any threat presented against our territory", he added.
So far Israel has discovered 800 tunnels and bunkers used by Hamas, where it has declared that it has destroyed 500 of them.
It is noted that the Palestinian Islamic group said before the war that it had hundreds of kilometers of tunnels, a network comparable in scope to the New York subway system, for defense and for use as a base of operations.
This made the tunnels prime targets for aerial bombardment, with armor-piercing munitions and army engineers using mapping robots or explosive devices that could be detonated in the passages.
