Israeli Tanks Enter Deir al-Balah in Gaza, Searching for Hostages

Israeli tanks have entered southern and eastern areas of Deir al-Balah in the Gaza Strip for the first time. Israeli sources report that the area is believed to be a possible location where hostages are being held.

Families of the hostages have expressed concern and are demanding explanations from the army regarding the protection of their relatives.

Meanwhile, health officials in Gaza report that at least three Palestinians have been killed and several others injured by tank shelling that hit eight houses and three mosques. The raids have forced dozens of families to move towards the coastal area of Deir al-Balah and Khan Yunis.
