IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir conducted a comprehensive field assessment on Wednesday throughout the Gaza Strip alongside Southern Command chief Maj. Gen. Yaniv Asur and senior infantry and armored corps commanders.
“We are escalating combat within the primary theater, throughout the Gaza Strip, while intensifying strikes against the Hamas terror organization,” Chief of Staff Zamir addressed fighters deployed in the field.
According to his assessment, “We initiated the second phase of Operation Gideon’s Chariots to accomplish the war objectives. Securing the return of our hostages constitutes a moral and national obligation. We shall persist in targeting Hamas’ strategic centers until achieving its defeat. We are generating relentless pressure across all locations.”
