Israel planning new Gaza City op in March, but will need okay from Trump

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) plans renewed military operations in Gaza in March, targeting Gaza City. The objective is to shift the ceasefire line further west, expanding Israeli control in the area. An Arab diplomat indicated U.S. support is essential for the operation, which coincides with a fragile ceasefire aimed at disarming Hamas.

Despite Prime Minister Netanyahu's cooperation efforts, he is skeptical about disarming Hamas and has instructed the IDF to prepare for action.

Recent Israeli strikes have targeted individuals crossing the ceasefire line. The IDF reported killing three operatives posing threats along this border. The military remains vigilant in enforcing ceasefire conditions while addressing immediate threats.
