Israel has announced a significant military operation named "Gideon's Chariots II", scheduled to take place in the city of Gaza. The operation, approved by the Israeli Minister of Defense, Israel Katz, on August 19, 2020, is a part of a strategy aimed at the total occupation of the Palestinian enclave.

The operation, named after a biblical reference, aims to eliminate the last stronghold of Hamas and free 22 reported hostages held in Gaza. The plan was initially deemed unfeasible by the Chief of Staff of the army, Eyal Zamir, but was eventually approved by him.

The implementation of the plan requires the mobilization of an additional 60,000 reservists from the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). This deployment involves five IDF divisions, including the 36th, 162nd, 98th, 99th, and the Gaza Division. The operation is scheduled to commence around September 2, 2025, marking the start of a prolonged military campaign against Hamas in Gaza.

The announced goal of the operation is clear: to free the 22 hostages in Gaza. The operation also aims to eliminate the last stronghold of Hamas, a move that is seen as a significant step in Israel's strategy towards the Palestinian enclave.

The plan for the operation "Gideon's Chariots II" was initiated by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The operation is a testament to Israel's commitment to ensuring the safety and security of its citizens, while also addressing the ongoing conflict in the region.

As the details of the operation unfold, the international community will be closely monitoring the situation, hoping for a peaceful resolution to the ongoing conflict and the safe release of the hostages.
