This was reported by the broadcaster ‘Channel 12’, specifying that the Tel Aviv authorities hope that the operation, which began with the ‘fake’ announcement of the start of a ground operation, could open a “decisive” phase in the conflict course. According to Channel 12, the announcement of the ground operation prompted Hamas to send its fighters into the tunnels and when the Air Force bombed them “the tunnels collapsed”. About 160 fighter planes took part in the raid and a total of 450 bombs were dropped.
