Idf said he completed the establishment of that corridor “in the past 24 hours.” According to their allegations, the military “eliminated dozens of terrorists, destroyed underground tunnels and Hamass’s terror infrastructure” within that operation, which lasted for about ten days.
By establishing the corridor, the sea cities of Rafah and Han Junis are separated. Together with the corridor of Netzarim, which is located north, the Gaza belt is now divided into three parts.
The Minister of Defense Israel Katz described the won areas as “security zones” to serve Israel. This action is the latest in the conflict that began on 7. October 2023, when Palestinian Islamist Hamas militia and others attacked Israel, killing 1200 people and taking about 250 for hostages.
Israel then attacked Gaza. According to Palestinian sources, more than 50,000 people have been killed there since. The figures do not distinguish between civilian and military victims, but many human rights organizations have condemned the number of women and children killed in the coastal belt.
