Defense Minister Yoav Gallant during a tour of the central Gaza border today says that Hamas fighters who are counting on the IDF to soon leave the Strip “need to change the count until the end of their lives.”
“In the north of the Gaza Strip, forces are completing the current mission. They are reorganizing with the intention of carrying out raids and airstrikes soon,” Gallant says.
He says that in central Gaza, the fighting “is intense.”
“The forces are working above ground and underground, destroying central infrastructures of the Hamas organization, including the places where Hamas produced all its missiles and supplied them all over the Strip,” Gallant says.
“In the south of the Gaza Strip, the operation is a powerful operation and it is getting stronger, above ground and below ground,” he says.
“Those terrorists who started counting down the time to the departure of the IDF forces, need to change the count, they need to start counting until the end of their lives on earth, it will come soon,” Gallant adds.
