According to a report by The Times of Israel on Wednesday, August 10, 2025, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) are preparing for a significant military offensive in Gaza City, as approved by Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir.
In a recent briefing with senior officers, Zamir outlined the IDF’s strategic objectives, emphasizing their unwavering commitment to dismantling Hamas’ rule.
He declared that the IDF’s primary goal is to topple the Hamas regime, asserting that no obstacles will prevent them from achieving this mission.
In his words, “We are going to bring down this regime, and nothing will stop us from carrying out the mission.”
Zamir stressed that this objective is non-negotiable and central to the IDF’s operations.
Zamir highlighted two key priorities guiding the IDF’s actions.
First, he underscored the urgent moral imperative to secure the release of hostages, describing it as a critical and essential task of the highest priority.
Second, he reaffirmed the IDF’s determination to dismantle Hamas’ authority, framing these goals as defining missions for the current generation of IDF leadership.
He emphasized that these objectives are not only strategic but also deeply rooted in the IDF’s duty to protect Israel’s security and values.
Addressing recent operations, Zamir referenced a strike conducted in Qatar within the past 24 hours, signaling the IDF’s readiness to pursue Hamas across multiple regions.
He affirmed that the IDF will relentlessly target and attack Hamas wherever it operates, including in Judea and Samaria (West Bank) and other locations.
This approach reflects the IDF’s broader strategy to weaken Hamas’ influence and operational capacity across various fronts.
Zamir also noted that the IDF is closely monitoring shifts in the regional balance of power in the Middle East.
He acknowledged that Israel has been engaged in a nearly two-year conflict, which is now entering decisive stages.
