IDF says territory is back under control as Gaza faces ‘full siege’

Hamas most likely “had a pretty good idea what Israel was going to do in response” because of past fighting, retired Army Lt. Col. Daniel Davis, a senior fellow at Defense Priorities, said on NBC News Now.
“All of those kinds of things is going to make it extraordinarily difficult for Israel to get in there and probably will make the casualties very high,” he said.
