Israel’s military says Palestinian fighters still operate in northern Gaza but are now disorganised after three months of attacks, Al Jazeera reports

“While there are still terrorists and weapons in the north, they are no longer functioning within an organised military framework,” said army spokesman Daniel Hagari, adding the Gaza invasion will last throughout 2024. “This is still an intense and complex operational activity.”

In central and southern Gaza, there are “hard battles being fought”.

Hagari also outlined the Israeli military’s focus on its border with Lebanon as deadly tit-for-tat attacks with Hezbollah continue.

“Our focus on Hezbollah’s Radwan forces in southern Lebanon is driving them away from the border. We are determined to continue creating a different security reality in the north, one that ensures safety for residents.”
