According to the IDF, more than 550,000 civilians have so far evacuated Gaza City and moved south.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n

The Israel Defense Forces is advancing into Gaza City, targeting Hamas\u2019s main stronghold, with troops engaged in combat against terrorists both above and below ground, IDF Spokesperson Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin said on Sunday.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHamas has shown the world its true strategy: to exploit its own people and prolong this war,\u201d said Defrin.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur forces are working day and night, turning over every stone, to bring our hostages home, dismantle Hamas\u2019s terror networks, and secure a safer region for all,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the past week, Hamas had demonstrated its tactics by firing on a U.N. team<\/a>, using stolen United Nations vehicles to obstruct the building of a new road for aid deliveries and robbing four UNICEF trucks at gunpoint, depriving thousands of infants of baby formula, said Defrin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hamas continues to block civilians from leaving combat zones, choosing to sacrifice Gaza\u2019s residents rather than protecting them, he added.<\/span><\/p>\n
