The Israeli military plans to mobilize tens of thousands of reservists as it prepares to launch a renewed offensive in Gaza and shift forces across multiple fronts.
Israel’s army chief, Eyal Zamir, has announced plans to call up tens of thousands of reservists to expand military operations in Gaza.
The reservists will be deployed to Israel’s border with Lebanon and the occupied West Bank, replacing regular troops who will spearhead a new offensive in the Gaza Strip.
The move follows Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s pledge to continue the war, despite mounting domestic pressure to strike a deal that would return Israeli captives and end the conflict, which has killed over 52,000 Palestinians.
In recent days, the Israeli military has intensified its bombing campaign and carved out wide buffer zones inside Gaza, further displacing the enclave’s 2.3 million residents and blocking aid deliveries.
Israel’s leadership maintains its dual war objectives: defeating Hamas and securing the return of the remaining 59 hostages held in Gaza. Since November 2023, 192 hostages have been freed through a combination of military operations and negotiated releases. Most were abducted during the Hamas-led assault on October 7, which killed around 1,200 people in Israel, mostly civilians, according to Israeli figures.
