Israel finalizes its ground offensive on Gaza. A week after last Friday, October 13, Israel gave 24 hours to the citizens of the Strip to move south, the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has once again warned about the imminent offensive by land, which has been delayed in recent days.
This Thursday, Netanyahu visited the elite forces of the Israeli Army, located on the Gaza border, to show his support: “I’m here with the Golani fighters, they come from all parts of the country. They fought like lions, they will fight like lions. Are you ready for the continuation? We are going to win with all our strength, are you ready? The entire State of Israel supports you, and we will deal a severe blow to our enemies so that we achieve victory.” For his part, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant assured the troops that they will soon see the Palestinian enclave “from within.” .
Despite the delay, it is assumed in Israel that the ground invasion will take place. For the moment, from the United States, Joe Biden has promised Netanyahu approval of an aid package emergency for Ukraine and Israel “which will be unprecedented” to help defeat “the Hamas terrorists” and the “tyrant (Vladimir) Putin”, who he considers intend to “end democracies.”
Following the Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7, Israel has responded to the deadliest attack in its 75-year history vowing to destroy Hamas, putting the entire Gaza Strip under total siege and bombing the enclave in attacks that have killed thousands and left more than a million homeless.
In the last week, the bombings have taken place on Gaza. Early this Friday morning, a air raid on an orthodox church Greek in Gaza has caused the death of 8 people who were taking refuge there from attacks by Netanyahu’s troops.
As reported by military spokesmen, this same night there were attacks “more than 100 Hamas targets” and this same Thursday Israel launched a ground operation in a West Bank camp that has resulted in the death of at least 13 Palestinians.
The most violent attack occurred on Tuesday, when a bombing left more than 500 dead at Al-Ahli hospital, one of 28 in the Gaza Strip. Israel and Hamas blame each other for the attack.
A bombing that the head of the White House has condemned, who in his speech wanted to differentiate between Hamas and the Palestinian people, after expressing his commitment to achieving peace and a two-state solution to the conflict. Thus, he has shown himself to be “deeply moved” by the death of Palestinians after the attack on the Al Ahli hospital in Gaza, although he has disassociated the Israeli Army from its alleged responsibility. “I am shocked by the tragic loss of Palestinian lives, including the Gaza hospital explosion, which was not the work of the Israelis. We mourn every innocent life lost. “We cannot ignore the humanity of innocent Palestinians who just want to live in peace and have a chance,” the president added.
In total, the authorities of the Strip, controlled by Hamas, The deaths have been estimated at more than 3,800 due to the Israeli bombings against the enclave, while the United Nations and various NGOs have warned of the deepening of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza due to the “total siege” imposed by Israel.
This same Friday, Doctors Without Borders (MSF) assured in an interview on Cadena Ser that “We are facing a humanitarian crisis that is unprecedented.“: “There is not a single safe place in Gaza. It is the most closed human cage ever. “People have nowhere to go and when they moved south they were bombed.”
The organization denounces that hospitals are “on the limit”: “They have hours of fuel left and if they don’t have fuel they separate the generators. “We are talking about intensive care units, incubators… many patients are going to die in beds,” they reported.
