Russian newspaper: South Gaza will become a trap for Israel. Hamas continues its steadfastness and maintains great capabilities in the tunnels to carry out its operations.
According to Israeli military commanders, the form of the operation in this area will follow the model of the war in Khan Yunis. The head of Hamas in Gaza, Yahya Sinwar, is still at large, but according to the Israeli army leadership, he is isolated from full channels of communication with other senior Hamas leaders. Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant promised to expand military operations.
