After "Am K'Lavi" in Iran, IDF renames its Gaza campaign as it enters advanced combat stage

The IDF has officially transitioned to a new phase of combat in the Gaza Strip, naming the continuation of Operation "Merkavot Gideon" as Operation “Ari Yitnaseh” (“The Lion Will Rise”), echoing the biblical phrase paired with the name of the Iran front, “Am K’Lavi.” Southern Command announced the name change as Israeli forces intensify targeted raids and counter-insurgency efforts inside urban Gaza zones.
