Israel is launching a new ground operation into Gaza and aims to seize a corridor that runs through the middle of the territory.

Israeli defense leaders announced on March 19 that they were pursuing a mission to retake the Netzarim Corridor, which stretches just south of Gaza City and bisects the Gaza Strip into northern and southern regions.
