What plans does Israeli military have for Gaza City?

It is difficult to understand what is happening in Gaza because the Israelis are controlling communication carefully.

Earlier this morning, it appeared that the Israelis temporarily closed one of the two main roads in Gaza from north to south. A video showed a car driving towards an Israeli tank on the road. The car quickly reversed direction when the tank started shooting, and then there was an explosion.

Why are the Israelis doing this. They may be trying to surround Gaza City because the military sees it as the main hub of Hamas.

If they try to do that, then the military will have to fight inside people’s houses.

With that being said, I’m not completely certain if the Israeli military has enough troops to completely block off a place as large and complicated as Gaza City. Hamas is deeply rooted in the city and has built a network of tunnels. It seems like they have been getting ready and considering what Israel might do. This is going to be a difficult task for the Israelis.
