"Israeli Military Launches Ground Operations in Gaza, Avoids Terming it an Invasion"

The Israeli military has launched what appears to be an invasion of Gaza, with troops advancing into the northern part of the enclave accompanied by heavy aerial and artillery bombardment. The military has not publicly described the operation as an invasion, and the maneuver appears more limited than expected. A communication blackout has left most people in Gaza unreachable, sparking fear and panic. International aid agencies have lost contact with their staff in Gaza, and the humanitarian crisis for the population is worsening. The U.N. General Assembly has called for an immediate cease-fire, while the U.S. imposes new sanctions on Hamas. Tensions between Israel and Turkey escalate, with Israel recalling its diplomatic representatives from Turkey for a re-evaluation of relations.
