Israeli tanks entered the center of Rafah, the southernmost city of Gaza, considered the last bastion of Hamas, Reuters reported, citing witnesses.
According to reports, a witness said that he saw an Israeli army tank near Al-Awda Mosque in the center of Rafah on the 28th local time.
Reuters reported that the Israeli military did not respond to a request for confirmation and said it would make an announcement later.
Some analysts say that Israel has launched a full-scale ground war.
