Map update for Southern Israel.

Nearly 48 hours after approximately 1,000 Hamas militants crossed the Armistice line and attacked Israel, fighting is ongoing.

Clashes have resumed in Mefalsim and continue in Sderot after renewed Hamas attacks in that area.

The IDF has stated that they will remove Hamas's ability to wage war and oust them from power in Gaza.

According to American officials, a ground operation in Gaza is anticipated to commence within the next 48 hours.
