We Have Surrounded Gaza City – Israel

Israel’s military has announced that it has surrounded Gaza City after days of expanding ground operations.

The Ezzedine Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, issued a warning to Israel, stating that its invading soldiers would return “in black bags.”

The Hamas spokesperson, Abu Obeida declared that “Gaza will be the curse of history for Israel.”

Israeli military spokesman Daniel Hagari confirmed the encirclement of Gaza City and mentioned that the concept of a ceasefire was not currently on the table.

“Israeli soldiers have completed the encirclement of the city of Gaza, the centre of the Hamas terror organisation,” Hagari told journalists.

“The concept of a ceasefire is not currently on the table at all,” he added.

Additionally, Israel and Hezbollah fighters in Lebanon exchanged fire after rockets hit a northern Israeli town.

However, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed his intention to work on preventing an escalation in the Israel-Hamas conflict during his Middle East visit.
