Israel Warns Gaza Residents Military Operations Against Hamas Will Escalate

In an effort to warn residents of Gaza that the “third phase” of their military operation would begin Israel dropped leaflets and made calls imploring Palestinians to stay away from Hamas targets.

Now into its third week the Israel offensive in Gaza has continued to target militant bases and buildings linked to Hamas. As part of “phase one” Israel launched massive airstrikes throughout the Gaza Strip and one week after the operations began they sent ground troops in to confront militants as “phase two.”

The dropping of leaflets and phone calls has led many to believe Israel is now ready to implement a “third phase” which would likely result in even more destruction.

Palestinians have said more than 800 have been killed thus far and the Red Cross has said residents are now facing a “humanitarian crisis” as they lack food and water and are left in constant fear for their safety.

The leaflets that were dropped told Gaza residents that they were not being targeted in the attacks but they should remain clear of Hama areas.

According to Israel to 70 attacks were carried out on Saturday while Hamas continued to launch rockets into southern Israel. Both sides have said a ceasefire was impossible at the time. Israel has demanded an end to all rocket attacks while Hamas wants Israel to end its blockade of the region.
