Israel launches Gaza war’s second phase with ground operation

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday that Israeli forces had entered the second phase in the war in Gaza as they pressed ground operations against Hamas militants running the Palestinian enclave.
Gaza’s besieged people had barely any communications with the outside world as Israeli jets dropped more bombs and military chiefs said a long-threatened ground offensive against Hamas militants was gearing up.
Speaking at a press conference in Tel Aviv, Netanyahu warned that the war would be long and difficult and reiterated Israel’s appeal to Palestinian civilians to evacuate the northern Gaza Strip where Israel was focusing its attack.
He vowed that every effort would be made to rescue the more than 200 hostages held by Hamas.
“This is the second stage of the war whose goals are clear – to destroy Hamas’ governing and military capabilities and to bring the hostages home,” Netanyahu told reporters.
Israel has blockaded and bombarded Gaza for three weeks after the Islamist group Hamas’ Oct. 7 assault killed 1,400 Israelis in the deadliest day of the nation’s 75-year history.
