The Israeli Army says it is calling about 60 thousand militias in front of a planned ground offensive to capture and invade the entire Gaza City.
A military official said the reserve would be submitted for duty in September and that most of the troops mobilised for the offensive would be active personnel, reports the BBC.
They added that troops were already operating in the Zeito and Jabalia areas as part of preparations for the plan, which Defence Minister Israel Katz approved on Tuesday and the security cabinet will be presented later this week.
Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in the City of Gaza are expected to be ordered to evacuate and go to refuge in southern Gaza.
