According to Israeli media reports, Israeli military forces, supported by tanks and under intense aerial cover, have begun advancing towards the southern entrance of Gaza City, specifically from the Al-Sabra neighborhood. This movement marks what Israeli Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir described as a "turning point" in the ongoing military campaign, as forces prepare to execute the next phase of "Gideon's Chariots."

Details of the New Military Plan
As revealed by the newspaper "Israel Hayom," the Israeli military is scheduled to present a detailed military plan to the Minister of Defense for approval today, Tuesday, with the objective of occupying Gaza City. The plan primarily relies on regular forces to carry out the takeover, while utilizing reserve forces to compensate for personnel in other sectors.
The newspaper specified that the army intends to enlist between 100,000 and 130,000 reservists to replace regular forces in various areas. It also noted that the process of gaining control and encircling Gaza City will involve three to four military divisions, with a doubling of military activity in the city's outskirts, particularly in the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood. According to current estimations, it is projected that achieving full control of the area could take approximately two months from the start of the operation.
