STORYLINE:
An explosion and smoke were seen over the Gaza Strip on Tuesday as Israel launched its offensive in Gaza City.

The operation threatens to overwhelm a city already in ruins from nearly two years of raids and bombardment.

Vehicles strapped with mattresses and other belongings clogged a coastal road as thousands of Palestinians fled Tuesday.

Hundreds of thousands more remain.

The operation into the largest Palestinian city further escalates a conflict that has roiled the Middle East and likely pushes any ceasefire farther out of reach.

The military wouldn’t offer a timeline for the offensive, but Israeli media suggested it could take months.

It says it aims to “destroy Hamas’ military infrastructure.”
