AhlulBayt News Agency: Israeli Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir announced that his forces are now fully prepared to move from a defensive posture to a full-scale offensive in the Gaza Strip, stressing that any breach on the ground will be met with a fierce military response aimed at depriving the adversaries of their fighting capabilities and imposing a new security reality.
Zamir explained that the ongoing military movements are being carried out under direct orders from the political echelon, noting the readiness of the occupation army to implement intensive operations as soon as orders are issued, in clear harmony between the military and political leaderships despite international warnings of the dangers of escalation within densely populated areas.
The Chief of Staff of the occupation army reiterated his assertion that the long-term war objectives include the complete disarmament of the Gaza Strip and the final dismantling of Hamas’s organizational and military capabilities, considering this a “red line” that cannot be reversed before it is achieved.
He concluded by saying that the “forces” would continue their operations without interruption and were prepared for even fiercer confrontations if called upon, which portends a continued escalation on the Gaza front in the coming period.
