Occupation Army: We Control 63% of the Sector.. and We Established 40 New Military Sites

Gaza - Afaq News - The commander of the Israeli army division that differs in the Gaza Strip, Liron Batito, stated that the Israeli army controls an area that exceeds the terms of the ceasefire agreement established by Trump by 10%.

Three years after the war, the Israeli army deepens its occupation in the Gaza Strip. In a podcast for the Israeli army, Batito, who led the Givati Brigade on October 7, 2023, presented a comprehensive overview of the control map in the sector and the targeted assassinations of senior Hamas leaders.

He stated according to Yedioth Ahronoth: "The Gaza Division now controls 63% of the area. We have established nearly 40 new advanced military sites, which gives us a significant advantage. The defense is now offensive; the settlements are behind us, and the army is in the front."

He pointed out that the damage inflicted on the senior leadership of the military wing of Hamas is nearly complete.

The Israeli army also claims that Hamas is no longer the military and governmental organization that prevailed on the evening of October 6, 2023. Its battalions' structure has been dismantled, its senior leadership has been severely harmed, and many of its essential infrastructure have been destroyed. However, its military wing is still trying to rebuild itself and arm itself, continuing to recruit elements from the residents of the Gaza Strip.
