Since the resumption of the Israeli military offensive on March 18, after the end of the Truce, the TSAhal troops continue their progress inside the Gaza Strip.
A month later, the Israeli army now controls almost 30% of the Gazaoui territory, between buffer zones and military corridors.
On the ground, Israeli soldiers continue their methodical progression. After having established military corridors in the south, along the Egyptian border (the so -called Philadelphia corridor), and in the center, around Netzarim, the army launched a new land operation in the Morag region. This 7 -kilometer strategic corridor is intended to cut the Gaza strip into several sectors and prevent the movements of Hamas fighters.
With these new areas under control and the widened buffer strips along the borders, Israel now occupies almost a third of the Gaza Strip – a territory of 365 km² already bloodless after months of war.
The stated objective remains the same: dismantle the military capacities of Hamas and release the 58 Israeli hostages still detained. But on the ground, strikes and fighting continue to hit the civilian population hard, hundreds of martyrs are to be deplored every day.
On Thursday, an Israeli air strike targeted a school transformed into a refuge for Palestinian displaced. According to the local civil defense, controlled by Hamas, 31 people were killed. The wounded were transported to one of the rare hospitals still in operation in the enclave.
