The Israeli Defense Forces disclosed on Saturday that its fighter jets struck 150 "underground targets" in the Gaza Strip overnight, including "terror tunnels, underground combat spaces," and "underground infrastructure."
The Israeli army previously announced that it would expand its ground operation in the Palestinian enclave during the night between October 27 and 28. Following the news, thousands of Israeli soldiers are believed to have entered Gaza.
Last week, American investigative journalist Seymour Hersh disclosed that the Israeli military leadership could be considering "flooding" the underground tunnels of Hamas before launching a ground operation into Gaza.
