Today is Day 111 of the war. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan in the Jerusalem office.
On Monday, reports in Israeli media started speaking of “fierce fighting” in Gaza. Horovitz speaks of what it is like for Israelis to await the terrible announcement that often follows such headlines.
Monday’s operation was to destroy two buildings in Gaza facing Kibbutz Kissufim as part of a buffer zone the IDF is constructing along the Gaza-Israel border. We hear more about the zone, rapidly taking shape.
