The Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported that the Israeli occupation army has secured half of the Morag Axis route, which extends from the area of Kibbutz Sufa to the seashore — a stretch of 10 kilometers.

According to the newspaper, the width of the axis ranges between 500 meters and 2 kilometers, allowing for better and safer operational control.

It added that three brigades of the occupation army are operating in the city of Rafah with the aim of destroying what remains of it and taking full control.

Regarding the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip, the newspaper quoted senior officers in the occupation army as saying that no aid will be allowed into the strip under the pretext that it would reach Hamas fighters — effectively meaning that the resistance in Gaza will continue.
