The Anadolu Agency reported that the IOF and
its military vehicles completely withdrew for the first time since October 27
from the neighborhoods of Al-Tawam, Al-Karama, and Al-Rashid Street. The IOF
also withdrew from residential neighborhoods located in the northwest of
Gaza Governorate, including the General Security HQ, the Intelligence Towers area,
and Al-Rashid Street.
Hours after the withdrawal, residents of those
areas headed to check their homes and properties from which they had been
displaced since the start of the war.
On October 27, 2023, the
IOF began a ground operation that included penetration into several areas and neighborhoods in
Gaza and the north. The IOF started a gradual withdrawal from areas in the
North Governorate around mid-December of last year, and at the start of
January, it started a partial withdrawal from neighborhoods and areas in the
Gaza Governorate. It also re-penetrated some areas in Gaza and the north of the
Strip in mid-January last year to carry out rapid operations, changing the
locations of penetration from time to time while retreating after its
operations to locations near the eastern and northern edges of the North
Governorate and the eastern and southwestern parts of Gaza.
