Israel has called up 60,000 reservists in preparation for a major new phase of its military operations in Gaza City. According to the Israeli military, troops have already reached the outskirts of Gaza City and are gearing up for a ground offensive aimed at fully occupying the city.
This development significantly increases the pressure on Hamas, especially amid ongoing discussions about a proposed 60-day ceasefire. The ceasefire plan includes both a truce and the release of hostages, with Israeli officials emphasizing that the war can only end once all hostages are freed.
The planned operation has raised concerns among international mediators who are awaiting Israel’s response to the ceasefire proposal. The military is currently active in parts of Gaza City where Hamas fighters continue to operate.
This escalation follows months of conflict in the region, which has resulted in:
- Severe humanitarian consequences
- Intensified military engagement
- Heightened international diplomatic efforts
The call-up orders to reservists underline the seriousness of the impending operation. As military actions on the ground intensify, the international community continues to watch closely, hoping for progress in peace negotiations.
