War in the Gaza Sector: Tsakhal goes into a less intense phase of hostilities - nyt

The Israeli Defense Army (Tsakhal) begins to move from a large -scale land and air campaign in the Gaza sector to a more purposeful phase of Hamas war. The transition will be completed by the end of January. About it writes New York Times. The spokesman of the tannel Daniel Hagari said that a new stage of the campaign provides for fewer troops and air strikes. He said Israel would continue to reduce the number of troops in the Gaza sector, and this process has already begun this month.

According to Khagari, Israel will focus on the southern and central reference points of the Hamas terrorist group, especially around Han-Yunis and Deir El-Balakh. According to unnamed American officials, the number of Israeli troops in the northern part of Gaza has decreased by about half. Yes, last month, about 50,000 soldiers were present in the midst of the campaign.

Israeli officials have stated that if the tacha is faced with the fierce resistance of Hamas or find unexpected threats, the scale and the rates of troops can slow down, and intense air strikes will continue. We will remind, in December the media reported that US President Joe Biden pushes Israel to reduce the intensity of combat in Gas.
