LONDON -- The Israeli military began a ground offensive in Gaza City, the Israel Defense Forces said on Tuesday. The IDF confirmed that the maneuver to occupy Gaza City that began overnight includes two divisions, with a third expected to join.

Netanyahu and Gallant currently have arrest warrants against them issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) in November 2024 for crimes against humanity and war crimes. Israel is also facing an ongoing case accusing the state of committing genocide, first submitted to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) by South Africa in December 2023.

The Israeli military launched its long-planned ground offensive into Gaza City on Tuesday, further escalating the nearly two-year war that has killed thousands as Israel hopes to take control of a key area in the northern part of the enclave.
