TEL AVIV—Israeli forces pushed across Gaza and in from the Mediterranean coast Thursday, cutting the enclave in two and isolating densely populated urban areas in the north where armored and infantry units were battling Hamas militants, said the Israeli military and the United Nations.

“IDF forces have finished encircling Gaza City, the stronghold of the Hamas terrorist organization,” said Israeli Military Spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari on Thursday night.
