The Israeli Occupation forces divided their military aggression on Gaza into three phases.

The first phase involved a military invasion, beginning in the north, specifically in Beit Lahia and Beit Hanoun.

The second phase focused on withdrawing from major cities to conduct further operations, effectively turning these areas into a "buffer zone," according to military analyst and strategist Dhaifallah Duboubi.

Duboubi, speaking on Roya TV's "News at Seven," noted that the Israeli Occupation forces had their sights set on Rafah, the Philadelphi Route, and the Salah al-Din axis since the onset of the aggression but left Rafah for the final stage.

He explained that the Israeli Occupation aimed to execute a two-phase operation, initially forcing the displacement of residents from Rafah. Approximately 1.2 million people were displaced from Rafah within three weeks.

The operation in Rafah was divided into three phases, with the third phase expected to be a prolonged effort by the Israeli Occupation forces, according to Duboubi.

Duboubi described the resistance's shift from "passive defense to active defense."
