Since the collapse of the truce in Gaza, the IDF (Israel Defence Force) has attacked over 3,500 terror targets in the Gaza Strip from air, sea and land, and more than 22,000 targets since the onset of hostilities, the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit reported Sunday evening. 

According to the army’s data, 1.4 million Gazans have been displaced due to the war, most moving from the territory’s north to its southern parts. 

The military estimates that about 7,000 Hamas members have been killed in the strikes, and it may take weeks to complete the ground operation. 

Additionally, the IDF is considering establishing a security zone in Gaza, similar to the one that existed in South Lebanon until May 2000, with positions close to the Gazan border. 

Furthermore, intelligence assessments reveal that between 50% to 70% of Gazans recently detained by the IDF are neither terrorists nor suspected of terror activities.
