Expanded evacuations, citizens leaving overnight in droves with hezbollah terrorists on the north side, that border of israel trying to open up a new war front against israel. President biden still pressing the idf to delay going into gaza on the ground after the october 7 attack. The goal is to try and free the more than 200 hostages that we know of.

They walked for a few kilometers on the wet ground and there are huge network of Tunnels Underneath and looks like a spider web. Harris axios is reporting israel is willing to delay
