As Israel intensified its attacks on the militant group Hamas, Gaza remained under a near-total communications blackout. Some aid groups said they were unable to reach their staffs on the ground.
TEL AVIV, Israel — Israeli troops remained on the ground in the Gaza Strip Saturday as part of what military officials have described as an"expansion" of ground operations, marking a significant escalation in Israel's war with the militant group Hamas that began earlier this month.
Israeli troops entered from northern Gaza, Hagari said, among them ground troops, armor and artillery. Footage released by the Israeli military appeared to show tanks entering along the beach on Gaza's north end. The ground operation was supported by"very significant, massive attacks from the sea" and heavy air bombardment, Hagari said.In a statement, Hamas called the operation a"failure" and said Israel took heavy losses.
The intensifying military operations took place amid a near-total outage of internet and phone service in Gaza, which began around sunset Friday.Multiple aid groups, including the International Committee of the Red Cross and the World Health Organization, reported difficulty contacting local staff in Gaza.
"Even some of the doctors' medical staffs, they are saying, what is the benefit of the help that we are doing now? We are not able to help patients anymore. We cannot do anything for them," said Dr. Mohamad Matar,Fewer than 100 trucks of aid have been allowed into Gaza since the conflict began.
