Defense Minister Israel Katz yesterday approved the IDF's attack plan for Gaza City, which was presented to him by IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir and the IDF's senior command team. The plan will be called "Gideon's Chariots B," following the "Gideon's Chariots" operation. As part of the plan, the necessary reserve call-up orders will be issued to carry out the attack. Additionally, the humanitarian preparations required for receiving residents who are expected to evacuate from Gaza City southward with the beginning of the offensive were approved - in order to isolate Hamas militants until their elimination.
