Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his forces will “take control” of the whole of Gaza as they press on with a newly expanded ground offensive under a plan dubbed “Operation Gideon’s Chariots”. The Israeli army has urged people in Gaza to evacuate parts of the south immediately ahead of what it described as an “unprecedented attack”. Meanwhile, Israel has said that it would allow a “basic amount” of food into Gaza, which Mr Netanyahu described as necessary to prevent famine for “diplomatic reasons”.
