The Israeli military announced on Saturday that its forces are preparing to implement a wide range of operational offensive plans, intensifying expectations of an imminent ground operation in the Gaza Strip. However, the operation has been delayed for a few days due to unfavorable weather conditions, according to senior Israeli officials cited by The New York Times on October 15.
The conflict escalated following a surprise attack by the armed group Hamas on October 7, which led to fierce fighting between Israel and the ruling faction of Gaza. In response, Israel’s military chief has vowed to dismantle Hamas’ control over the region.
The situation has generated significant international concern, as the potential ground offensive could have far-reaching implications for regional stability. Nations across the globe are closely monitoring developments, emphasizing the need for de-escalation and the protection of civilian lives.
As tensions rise, humanitarian organizations have expressed alarm over the growing crisis. Efforts to provide aid and support to affected populations are underway, but challenges persist amid ongoing hostilities.
