A new Israeli limited ground incursion into the Gaza Strip
The Israeli army and Palestinian sources said today (Friday) that the Israeli army entered an open area near the separation fence in the town of Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip and the Bureij camp in the central Strip.
Palestinian sources told Xinhua News Agency at dawn today (Friday) that they recorded two ground incursions on the outskirts of Beit Hanoun and Bureij camp amid heavy gunfire, noting that Israeli tanks and vehicles advanced dozens of meters in the two areas but remained in open areas and close to the fence. .
This is the third time that Israeli forces have penetrated the Gaza Strip since the start of fighting with Hamas on October 7th.
An Israeli army spokesman said that the incursion forces targeted anti-tank weapons, in what observers believe was in preparation for a deep ground invasion into the Gaza Strip.
Media reports quoted Israeli Army Radio as saying that infantry, armored and engineering forces carried out a ground incursion into the Gaza Strip at night and worked there for several hours, attacking Hamas targets.
Media reports, citing the Israeli army, said that the forces had left the area without any casualties after carrying out the ground operation.
