Quick takeaways

Deep dives

Israel's objective in Gaza is to isolate Gaza City from the rest of the Gaza Strip

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) are driving south along the coast and cutting north to split Gaza City from the rest of Gaza. This is done to diminish the rockets from Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad into Israeli territory. The Israeli strategy aims to put pressure on Gaza City, potentially driving civilians to leave and creating corridors for humanitarian assistance.
