The Israeli military suffered its deadliest day on January 22 since the war in Gaza began, with 24 soldiers killed in two attacks. That brought Israel's total military deaths to more than 200 since October 7.
Israel has called up about 360,000 reservists, and tens of thousands of soldiers have been sent to fight in Gaza, where more than 26,000 Palestinians have been killed in three months.
Israel says that the city of Gaza is now completely encircled, with many residents now living in tents near the Rafah border.
