New Delhi: Israeli military’s incursion in Gaza has become bigger compared to the raids carried out in the northern part of the Strip in the past 24 hours, Axios reported, according to India Today. On the other hand, Hamas asserted that its fighters in Gaza would respond to Israel’s attacks with “full force”.
A video tweeted by online news outlet Visegrad24 shows Israeli tanks firing towards the Gaza side and a loud explosion is heard.
“In addition to the attacks carried out in the last few days, ground forces are expanding their operations tonight,” Israeli military spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari was quoted as saying by news agency Reuters.
Amid the war, internet and phone services were down in Gaza as Israel ramped up its military operations in the region. The blackout has resulted in 2.3 million people being cut off from the outside world and each other, according to The Times of Israel.
The Israeli military said it killed Asem Abu Rakaba, the head of Hamas’s aerial array, who helped to plot the surprise attack on Israel and commanded the terrorists who infiltrated the country on paragliders.
In a statement, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said Rakaba was also responsible for the drone attacks on Israeli military posts.
