Israel has confirmed a new attack plan in the Gaza Strip, with a focus on training troops and mobilizing reserve forces.

The Israel Defense Forces have approved a new plan of attack in the Gaza Strip, headed by General Eyal Zamir. The plan includes intensive preparation of troops and mobilization of reserve forces, given the impact of military action on the dense population in the area. Zamir stressed the need for a breathing period before offensives, warning of the risks of a total occupation of the Gaza Strip. The recently approved plan signals an intensification of Israeli military operations.
