Israelische Streitkräfte in der Nähe des Stadtzentrums von Gaza, als die Hamas Berichten zufolge sich auf Street-to-Street-Kämpfe vorbereitet

The IDF launched its ground offensive to take over Gaza City a week ago. Since then, it has been advancing rapidly across the city, taking minimal casualties while exploiting its overwhelming firepower, manpower, and air superiority.

The war will not end with Hamas losing Gaza City, which, at the current pace, will probably happen within weeks, but Israel will then be able to establish an internal perimeter and freeze the situation. Hamas may still hold hostages, but Israel will hold the stronger hand.

Gaza City once had an estimated one million residents, but in the past couple of weeks most have left, leaving the city largely empty

I guess that’s better than hospital to street fighting.
