Israel: Israel has stepped up its attack on Rafah after vowing to move on with the planned military operation in the southern Gaza city. Hamas, however, said that Israel would fail to meet its goals even if it invaded Rafah.
Israel launched more airstrikes on Rafah despite allies’ warnings this could cause mass casualties.
Medics in the besieged Palestinian enclave reported five Israeli airstrikes on Rafah on Thursday that hit at least three houses, killing at least six people including a local journalist.
Israeli forces also resumed bombarding northern and central areas of the enclave, as well as east of Khan Younis in the south.
Hamas said that Israel would fail to meet its stated goal of defeating the Palestinian group by invading Rafah.
