Israel has "expanded" its operations in the Gaza Strip with the Palestinian group Hamas saying its operatives were ready to confront attacks with "full force". As Israeli air and ground forces stepped up their attacks on Friday night, local telecom firms and the Palestinian Red Crescent Society in Gaza said that the internet and mobile phone services were cut off.
"In the last hours, we intensified the attacks in Gaza," Israel's military spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said in a televised news briefing. He also said that Israel's air force was conducting extensive strikes on Hamas' tunnels and other infrastructure.
"In addition to the attacks carried out in the last few days, ground forces are expanding their operations tonight," he said.
Since the October 7 Hamas attack on Israeli towns, that killed over 1,400 people, Gaza's health ministry has said that Israel's retaliatory bombardments have killed more than 7,300 Palestinians.
