Reporter tonight, israel with the massive bombardment of gaza. Those fire balls lighting up The Night Sky as the military announces to the world a new phase of this war is now beginning. The admiral declaring, Ground Forces are expanding their operations tonight. Exactly what that means, still unclear. A u. S. Official characterizes it to abc news not as an invasion but a more limited incursion. An Israeli Military spokesman described it to me as a Sweep And Clear operation to create better conditions for Israeli Soldiers on the ground in gaza, rooting out antitank capabilities and hamas watch posts, and taking out hamas fighters on the front lines. But it seems like youre describing them doing something thats more active than what weve been hearing about, at least. As the general said increasing our activities, taking our war to hamas, we intend on dismantling their capabilities, destroying their government and making sure they can never use the gaza strip as a Staging Ground against our people again. Reporter it comes 24 hours after israel launched this raid by sea, Hammering A Compound used by hamas commando naval forces. Israeli troops on the beaches of gaza in close combat. And through it all, hamas still able to launch multiple salvos of rockets into tel aviv today. You can see where that rocket hit just a few moments ago. That building still smoldering.

Reporter also trapped in gaza, some 229 hostages believed to be hidden in hamass elaborate maze of underground tunnels. Who turned 12 years old in one of them is erez kalderon, who turned 12 years old in captivity. I can hear him. Such a sweet, sweet boy, a good heart. The agony being felt by so many of these families. Matt gutman with us live tonight in tel aviv. The Israeli Military, of course, saying that, quote, Ground Forces are expanding their operations tonight. Obviously theres a lot of concern. There remains more than 200 hostages inside gaza. Is there any reporting tonight on where this operation goes from here . Reporter david, we know that a deal facilitated by qatar for the release of, perhaps, dozens of those hostages has been in the works for days. They say that if israel invades the gaza strip, the deal is off. I spoke with a representative for the families of those hostages who told me they fear that Ground Incursion could imperil both that deal and the lives of their loved ones. David matt gutman, thank you again. With the u. S. Watching this very closely, the pentagon tonight revealing that the u. S.

Forces in iraq and syria, leaving dozens of servicemembers injured, though all minor injuries. Defense secretary lloyd austin saying these iranianbacked attacks against u. S. Forces are unacceptable and must stop. A senior u. S. Official adding that irans fingerprints were all over the attacks, including a barrage of missiles and drones launched from yemen last week that a u. S. Warship shot down over the red sea. But the president has stopped short of airstrikes on iran itself. Everything President Biden is doing, everything, over the last couple of weeks is designed to prevent escalation, to prevent any other actor from trying to jump in here and deepen and widen this conflict. David Martha Raddatz back with us live tonight. Martha, what are your sources telling you about how concerned the u. S. Is with the Israeli Ground incursion growing tonight and about other actors in the region who might potentially want to get involved here . Reporter david, its one of the reasons this retaliatory strike on the iranian militants was limited, targeting only those weapons facilitates, the u. S. Wants to punish, not provoke. But the u. S. Has made it clear to iran and its proxies that if the strikes on u. S. Forces continue, we will not hesitate to respond again. David . David Martha Raddatz live in washington tonight, thank you.
