Israel is focusing its efforts on attacking Khan Younis. Beyond being a strategic place, It is the birthplace of some of Hamas’s leaders, and Netanyahu’s troops believe that is where they could be hiding.

It is no coincidence, it is where the creator of the organization, Yahia Sinwar, was born, as well as Mohammed Deif, head of the military branch. It is also in this southern Gazan city where Israel points out, more than 120 hostages could be held who still remain to be released.

Israeli tanks have already entered the city of Khan Younis, although they still do not have it under control. Daniel Hagari, spokesman for the Israeli Army, has assured that “Israeli troops are currently fighting in Khan Younisthe capital of Hamas in the southern Gaza Strip.”

Israel claims it is the last major Hamas stronghold in the Strip next to Gaza City and Jabalia. As explained by Yago Rodríguez, director of ‘The Political Room’, he assured that “from what the Israelis indicate, the Hamas defensive organization consists of two divisions, one in the north and the other in the south, each of which has assigned the defense of a series of tunnel networks.

Meanwhile, Netanyahu rejects the international offer to demilitarize the strip: “There is only one force that can impose this demilitarization. And that force is the Israeli Army.” A military force that pushes the civilians of Gaza to the limit, who survive in inhumane conditions. In fact, this Wednesday marks 60 days since the start of the war and the civilians killed in Gaza by The bombings now exceed 16,000.
