The Israeli military is maintaining a blog that gives regular updates on Operation Cast Lead in Gaza. One recent entry provides a fascinating look at what Israeli troops are encountering as they confront Hamas strongholds in Gaza. Be sure to check it out, and to also watch my colleague Chris Mitchell's report on some of the latest developments in the conflict, including the possible opening of a Lebanese front against Israel. Also note that tomorrow is a pivotal day in the Hamas-Fatah power struggle that continues to unfold in the Palestinian territories, as Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas's term expires. Hamas has already said it does not support an extension of Abbas's tenure. Abbas--who has no power in Hamas-ruled Gaza, but whom the West has invested so much in--fully plans to stay on. Stay tuned.
