north, claimed to clear jabalia right next to gaza city. fighting has once again resumed in that area. israel has resumed air strikes, hamas is once again fighting in the area. hamas appears to have regrouped and for israel this is a very bad sign, it suggests its clearing operations that so far have been moving from the north to the south starting above, north of gaza city, north of jabalia, moving to center and focusing on rafah, it suggests those clearing operations were unsuccessful and that now israel's facing hamas that's able to reconstitute, to re-arm itself, in a way to degree resupply its fighters and it has
12:34 pm
