The team at CNN entered the Gaza Strip with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in an armored tank along the same roads that Hamas militants used to carry out the brutal attack on October 7 in which 1,400 people were killed and hundreds taken hostage .
“We are going to exactly the same roads, to the same neighborhoods, to their meeting areas, to their trucks, to get there and be able to make them pay the price and to eliminate the Hamas organization that carried out this attack on the state of Israel. ,” said IDF lieutenant colonel Gilad Pasternak
A week after the start of its ground offensive, the Israeli military claims to have surrounded the city of Gaza.
Jeremy Diamond from the CNN was part of a small group of reporters who had access to Israeli forces inside Gaza for the first time since the start of the war.
Journalists embedded with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in Gaza operate under the observation of Israeli commanders on the ground and are not authorized to travel unaccompanied within the strip.
As a condition of entering Gaza under IDF escort, media outlets must submit all materials and footage to the Israeli military for review before publication.
A CNN agreed to these terms in order to provide a limited window into Israel’s operations in Gaza.
