Israel’s military claims it has cut Gaza in half, surrounded Gaza City

Israel’s military has claimed it has encircled Gaza City and divided the besieged coastal strip into two, as Gaza came under its third total communications outage since the start of the war.

“Today, there is north Gaza and south Gaza,” Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari told reporters on Sunday, calling it a “significant stage” in Israel’s war against Hamas.

Israeli media reported that troops are expected to enter Gaza City within 48 hours. Strong explosions were seen in northern Gaza after nightfall.

But the “collapse in connectivity” across Gaza reported by internet access advocacy group NetBlocks.org and confirmed by the Palestinian telecom company Paltel made it even more complicated to convey details of the new stage of the military offensive.

You realise Hamas is like 30 years old and started as a charity backed by Israel? They then seized power after killing their rivals.

Should we murder Innocent chinese people because of the communist party? Wipe them off the earth, demolish their cities and Culture?
