Israeli military says it launched 'limited ground operation' in northern Gaza

The Israeli military said Wednesday it launched a ‘’limited ground operation'' to retake part of a key Gaza corridor, Report informs via The Minnesota Star Tribune.

The move appeared to deepen a renewed Israeli offensive in Gaza, which shattered a ceasefire with Hamas that had begun in January.

As part of the ceasefire, Israel had withdrawn from the Netzarim corridor, which it had used as a military zone and which bisected northern Gaza from the south.
