Ready for long days of fighting, so the IDF said its forces were ready for all possibilities and scenarios in the Gaza Strip

According to Israel Broadcasting Corporation, Israeli army spokesman Ran Koukhav said: "We are preparing for long days of operations, which may take at least a week," adding: "If necessary, it will be longer."

In the west of Gaza City, Israeli aircraft destroyed two houses of the Shalamkh family and a five-storey house in the vicinity of Abu Hasseh Street. Al-Ghazi Ahmed Shalamkh said as he inspected his destroyed house as a result of the Israeli bombing:

"My dream of destroying this house has been destroyed. Since 2016, I have been working to equip it for me to marry, and then the Israeli bombing came with a moment and destroyed my dream. They told us before you a quarter of an hour we went out and left everything, and we promised to see this devastation. My wife and I lost everything.

Next door, the child Rama Shalem, whose father's house was destroyed by Israeli aircraft, tries to search the school books. She did not have time to carry the school bag.

Where baby Rama said "I couldn't take my books and stuff, I went out with my family speeding and I came back after the bombing and everything was devastating, and I couldn't find my toys and books, which is my fault to live this devastation and feel afraid of war."

Israel's bombardment of the Gaza Strip continues for the second consecutive day, resulting, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, in 15 deaths, including a girl child and a woman, and injuries to more than 125 others, as well as extensive damage to homes, property and infrastructure.
