Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that a new plan calls for a “forceful entry” into the territory and would involve Palestinians relocating to the south.

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that a new offensive in Gaza will be an intensive military operation aimed at defeating Hamas, but stopped short of detailing just how much of the enclave's territory would be seized.

The military has begun issuing tens of thousands of call-up orders for its reserve forces, looking to expand the Gaza campaign, its chief said.
