Several witnesses in southern Gaza also told AFP that they’ve seen tanks and other armored vehicles moving towards southern Gaza, showing Israel is set to begin a full-fledged offensive in the region. In a statement released by Israel’s defense ministry, Israeli defense minister Yoav Gallant said Monday that the Israeli army will storm the entirety of Gaza City and the northern part of the Gaza Strip until all Hamas infrastructure is “completely destroyed.“ He also said that the military will remain in Gaza until “all Hamas infrastructure is eliminated“ and went on to say that the military “has begun to work in the south of the Gaza Strip.“ In the meantime, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said he was surprised by the resumption of hostilities between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip and urged both sides to respect their obligations to comply with international humanitarian law. Guterres also expressed concern that people in Gaza had “nowhere safe to go“ and appealed to Israel to avoid further action that worsens the already catastrophic humanitarian situation in the region. He added that civilians and civilian infrastructure, including medical staff, journalists, and UN personnel, must be protected at all times.
