Only Hamas is claiming this so far as far as I can tell.

Hamas could easily be lying, of course.
23:00 GMT: Hamas claims to be engaging Israeli troops landing on a beach near Gaza City and several reports of gunfire and explosions begin to surface on social media.
It was not immediately clear if Israeli ground forces are involved in the battle and Israeli military correspondents were quick to point out that an incursion from the sea would make no sense from a strategic viewpoint.

Last go around, Israeli troops were conspicuously gathered within view of the dividing line, hoping for an intimidation factor.
The Israelis now seem to have adopted a much more secretive and surprise strategy.
There is no evidence a ground invasion is taking place right now. Don’t worry, there will be live-tweeting and live video within minutes of anything major. In the meantime, I expect feints and hit-and-run.

Maybe Hamas is attacking their own people and haven’t figured it out yet. LOL

I just read a report from the Telegram, a British paper which says they have a reporter on the ground who is reporting a column of Israeli tanks is advancing into Gaza.
I think the only question now is how limited or not the operation will be.

I doubt the goal is even to eradicate Hamas, just degrade it to the point they arent a real threat for some time into the future.
The only problem with that is that the situation will just come up over and over again. Best to go in an eliminate Hamas once and for all.

I should have said “The Telegraph” instead of the telegram.

2 hours ago the Israeli Navy hit a terror target where rockets were launched.
Maybe this is where the fevered imagination of Hamas came up with amphibious assault?

Israel did bomb a mosque, they admit it. This is why.
