JERUSALEM, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) — The Israeli army's planned takeover of Gaza City will take at least six months, Israeli state television Kan TV reported Saturday evening.
Citing senior security sources, the channel provided a detailed timeline of the army's actions after the operation was approved by the security cabinet on Friday.
According to the TV channel, in two weeks the army will begin evacuating more than 800 thousand residents of the largest city in the sector to the humanitarian zone of Al-Mawasi in southern Gaza.
A reserve division will be recruited within a month to join the five divisions operating in the Strip ahead of an intensive military operation in Gaza City, which is due to begin in about two months.
In preparation for the ground operation, Israeli authorities plan to quadruple the number of trucks carrying humanitarian aid entering Gaza to 1,200.
The Israeli army's decision to seize Gaza City has drawn condemnation both domestically and internationally. Critics say Israel is violating international law, worsening the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and undermining efforts to broker a ceasefire.
Meanwhile, thousands of people demonstrated in Tel Aviv on Saturday calling for an end to the war through a deal that would secure the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza. –0–
