Another reason for sending troops across the border is to act against the tunnels that Hamas built within the Gaza Strip as a warning and defense against potential Israeli entry into the region.
In the latest update provided by IDF Spokesperson, Brigadier General Daniel Hagari, he mentioned, "We will continue to make every effort to bring every detail regarding the missing and captured individuals from all locations. The troops have searched and identified findings that may assist in the search." Hagari added, "IDF forces have conducted local incursions into the Gaza Strip to complete the cleansing of the area from terrorists and means of warfare. These actions also involve efforts to locate the missing individuals."
According to him, "IDF ground forces and intelligence units scoured a separate area, collecting potential findings that may aid in the effort to locate the missing individuals. They also dismantled terror infrastructure and tunnels used by terrorists in the area, including a tunnel of Hamas, the terrorist organization that launched explosive-laden drones towards Israeli territory. Additionally, the Israeli Air Force continued its strikes against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip, including strikes on rocket launchers immediately after their activation towards Israel."
Hagari addressed the casualties, the fallen, and the missing in his statement, saying, "We have conveyed messages to 265 bereaved families and to 120 families with regards to those who were taken captive."

Mr.
Wish more of thus got to MSNBC and CNN in America and SkyNews elsewhere. Then we can ask that a congress woman from Wisconsin, who identifies herself as Palestinian American ( the one who was centured yesterday) Then she can try to explain to millions of Americans and a lot of Canadians, why she puts blame on Israel. Why is she wanting to blame Israel for a what Hamas did. All.of those children that she chokes back tears ad she talks about how Israel is at fault for wounding and killing and why she can't see how Hamas is at fault. They wanted this war. They started it just as the Nazis started WW2 and tried to blame everything on the Jews. Fortunately Secretary of State Blinken and President Biden know the score, and know that a cease fire will only allow rearming of terrorists. Will she tben admit it is Palestinian terrorist who do not want peace that started this, and apologize.And I did see all. all of that on CNN. The news satellite services should run this briefing every hour for a week so the Americans see it. I will put them in touch with ynetnews so the people who sob and wave Palestinian flags and march in times square will have to stop and admit they are foolish pawns in the propaganda war.

Enough is enough
I don't understand why is it so hard for human beings to just get along, and try to understand and accept each other the way they are regardless of their differences. Isn't that easier than killing each other for years without end? More acceptance, more understanding with each other, more love for life is what both Israelis and Palestinians must agree to; and do so without biased conditions that could easily be broken. The world needs more peace and less war. War is just getting old. Seriously, violence leads nowhere but to more violence and despair in a neverending loop of blood, tears and suffering. Please, embrace each other alreaady and vow to accept each other once and for all. The entire world will greatly appreciate it.

Comrade
I pray that God will be with the nation of Israel in this critical period, and other countries affected during this wicked act of hamas .
