JERUSALEM: Israel's army said Sunday it aims to evacuate all Israelis living close to the Gaza Strip within 24 hours as it deployed tens of thousands of soldiers to fight Palestinian militants who had infiltrated into Israel.

'Our mission for the upcoming 24 hours is to evacuate all residents living around Gaza,' military spokesman Daniel Hagari told reporters, adding that fighting was still on to 'rescue hostages' held by militants in Israel.
