The Israeli army has called on tens of thousands of reservists to “intensify and expand its activities in Gaza.”
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it “raised the pressure” with the aim of returning hostages in Gaza and beating Hamas militants.
According to the plan, the army said it would operate in new areas and “destroy all infrastructure” above and below ground.
The Israeli Security Cabinet was expected to vote on Sunday about the military expansion, the local media reported.
No Israeli hostages have been released since Israel resumed his offensive on March 18 after the collapse of a two-month ceasefire with Hamas. Israel and Hamas blamed each other before the end of the ceasefire.
Since then, Israel has seized large areas of Gaza, which moves hundreds of thousands of Gazans.
On March 2, Israel closed crossings to Gaza, preventing all goods, including food, fuel and medicines. Some humanitarian organizations no longer have food and community kitchens say that their stocks are declining rapidly.
There is a growing international pressure on Israel to lift its blockade, with warnings that massive hunger can be on hands and that deliberately starving citizens is a war crime.
Israeli officials have said that his offensive is aimed at securing the release of the remaining 59 hostages being kept by Hamas – of whom 24 is supposed to live.
The army presented Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with his planned staged offensive in Gaza on Friday, according to local media.
In recent weeks, thousands of Israeli reservists have signed letters that require the government of Netanyahu to stop fighting and concentrates instead to reach a deal to bring back the hostages.
On Saturday evening there were new protests throughout Israel to put an end to the conflict.
In Tel Aviv, the mother of a hostage said in captivity it remains an “unnecessary war”.
The Israeli army said on Sunday that two more Israeli soldiers were killed in Gaza.
In the meantime, a rocket shot off Yemen landed nearby On Sunday morning the Israeli authorities said.
In Gaza, the Hamas-Runned Ministry of Health said from 11:05 AM Local Time (09:05 BST) on Sunday 40 people were killed in the previous 24 hours, and another 125 injured.
The Israeli army launched a campaign to destroy Hamas in response to an unprecedented cross -border attack on October 7, 2023, in which around 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were held hostage.
At least 52,535 people were killed in Gaza during the subsequent war, according to Hamas Health Minister of Hamas.
