Gaza, July 13: Israel for the first time on Sunday launched a ground operation inside northern Gaza to silence Hamas rocket fire and thousands of Palestinians fled their homes after the Israeli military threat-ened to widen its assault that has killed nearly 170 people in six days. Ignoring global calls for a ceasefire, Israeli troops - thought to be naval com-mandos - briefly entered Gaza early Sunday and raided a missile launch-ing site. This is the first time Israeli forces have acknowledged they’ve entered Gaza in what ap-peared to be the ground assault.Israel has been building up its troops along the border with northern Gaza, fuelling specula-tion of a possible ground invasion. During the incursion, which lasted about half an hour, both sides exchanged gunfire

at the launch site, an Is-raeli military source said.Four Israeli troops suf-fered light injuries, but

all the soldiers returned home safely, the source said. The Israeli jets later dropped leaflets at Beit Lahiya, home to about 100,000 people, warning residents to evacuate their homes ahead of their “short and tempo-rary” campaign to begin today.“The Israeli Defense Forces intends to attack

terrorists and terror in-frastructures ...” the leaf-lets said, mentioning a list of areas that will be

targeted.“Israel is currently at-tacking, and will contin-ue to attack, every area from which rockets are being launched at its ter-ritory.” More than 4,000 Gaza residents had taken refuge at eight bases of the United Nations Re-lief and Works Agency, spokesman Chris
