An Israeli soldier was killed and three others were wounded on Sunday inside Gaza as the Israel Defense Forces carried out limited operations within the tiny enclave ahead of the military's expected wider incursion.
The IDF has not yet fully entered Gaza despite indications that it would've already begun at this point. In addition to the complexities of fighting in an urban environment against an enemy with a maze of underground tunnels that provide even more challenges, the Israeli forces are also looking to save the more than 200 people who were kidnapped in the attacks. IDF spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said on Monday that the military had notified the families of 222 people who were kidnapped.
