Israeli Defense Force: Amassing 100k troops in southern Israel to neutralize Hamas' military facilities

A spokesperson of the Israeli Defense Force said on Monday that Israel is amassing 100,000 troops in southern Israel to neutralize Hamas' military facilities.

Attacks by Hamas fighters on Saturday killed at least 700 Israelis, triggering a renewed conflict between Israel’s military and Hamas-controlled Gaza in recent decades.

In retaliation, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition government launched airstrikes that have killed over 400 people in Gaza.
