IDF tanks shown in Gaza as Israeli military releases footage displaying operations

Fighting is raging beyond dawn in Gaza after Israel expanded its ground operation with infantry and armored vehicles backed by “massive” strikes from the air and sea. Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari of the IDF said on Saturday morning that “the forces are still on the ground and are continuing the war”. The military has released videos showing columns of armored vehicles moving slowly in open sandy areas of Gaza, the first visual confirmation of ground troops. Previously, troops had conducted brief nightly ground incursions before returning to Israel. #israel #hamasattack #gaza Subscribe to The Telegraph with our special offer: just £1 for 3 months.
