A satellite image analysis today by Abu Ali Express shows Israeli forces have made territorial gains in the central Gaza Strip camps area and expanded their control deep into the northwest coast, reducing the territory still under Hamas control.
Tonight's satellite image analysis from Abu Ali Express shows two new areas of IDF territorial advance inside the Gaza Strip: the central camps region and the northwest coast. The northwest coast advance deepens the hold reported earlier Saturday, when the same channel noted Israeli forces entering the al-Sudaniya beach area — a former Hamas naval commando base — outside the declared 'yellow line'.
The analysis marks the first clear evidence of IDF progress in the central camps, which include the Nuseirat, Bureij, and Maghazi refugee camps. Previous satellite mapping by the channel, reported by The Zioneer on June 27, had documented four main IDF salient zones: the Al-Atatra area north of Beit Lahia, the Wadi Gaza bridge area, Khan Younis, and Rafah. The new central camps push represents a fifth axis.
Prime Minister Netanyahu said on June 24 that Israel controls about 70% of the Strip. Tonight's analysis suggests that figure may be increasing as the blue (IDF-held) area expands in the northwest. No official IDF confirmation of the satellite findings has been issued.
