By order of the security cabinet and backed by artillery units, "Israeli" forces moved into the Gaza Strip in the early hours of Thursday morning, creating a buffer zone around the northern territories. Three Palestinians were killed during the operation. "Israel" is threatening to expand its offensive, aiming at stopping rocket attacks against "Israeli" border towns. On Wednesday night, a rocket fired from the Gaza Strip had struck Ashkelon, without resulting in any casualties or damages, despite the "Israeli" threats for retaliation. The "Israeli" forces advanced three kilometres, entering the sites of the former "Israeli" settlements of Elei Sinai, Dugit and Nissanit, while they are moving towards the towns of Beit Hanoun and Beit Lahiya.
Faced with this unsettled situation in the Middle East, especially following the abduction of an "Israeli" Corporal by Palestinian groups and the mounting "Israeli" operations.
