Israeli troops pushed deeper into Gaza on Tuesday, driving tanks and armored bulldozers through the rubble of shattered buildings and hunting for Hamas militants, after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu categorically ruled out a cease-fire.
10月31日，在以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡断然拒绝停火之后，以色列军队深入加沙地区，驾驶坦克和装甲推土机穿过被炸毁的建筑物废墟，追捕哈马斯武装人员。
Israel said its forces attacked Hamas gunmen inside the vast tunnel network beneath Gaza.
以色列方表示，以军袭击了加沙地下庞大地道网络中的哈马斯持枪人员。
The tunnels are a key objective for Israel as it expands ground operations inside Gaza to wipe out the Hamas movement. Hamas has so far released four out of the 239 hostages Israel says were captured on Oct 7. Many of the hostages are believed to held in the tunnel network.
隧道是以色列在加沙扩大地面行动以消灭哈马斯运动的一个关键目标。以色列称，哈马斯在10月7日挟持了239名人质，迄今已释放了其中4人。
"Over the last day, combined IDF combat forces struck approximately 300 targets, including antitank missile and rocket launch posts below shafts, as well as military compounds inside underground tunnels belonging to Hamas," the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement.
以色列国防军在声明中说：“在过去24小时内，以色列国防军袭击了约300个目标，其中包括反坦克导弹和火箭发射阵地，以及哈马斯的隧道和军事设施。

"Calls for a cease-fire are calls for Israel to surrender to Hamas," he said.

China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin on Tuesday said the top priority now is the immediate full implementation of the United Nations' resolution as it reflects the strong voice of most countries, and to cease fire, stop violence and prevent the situation in Gaza from further deteriorating so there will not be an even greater humanitarian disaster.
10月30日，中国外交部发言人汪文斌表示，当务之急是全面落实联大决议，该决议反映了大多数国家的强烈呼声，停火止暴，避免局势进一步恶化，防止出现更大的人道主义灾难。
Every country has the right of self-defense, he said, but it needs to abide by the international law and protect the safety of civilians.
汪文斌指出，各国都有自卫权，但都应遵守国际法，特别是国际人道法，保护平民安全。
Wang said the root cause of the cycle of conflict between Palestine and Israel is the illegal occupation of Palestinian territories and noted that the basic rights of the Palestinian people have not been guaranteed for a long time.
他表示，巴以冲突循环往复的根源在于巴勒斯坦领土长期被非法占领，巴勒斯坦人民独立建国的权利被长期忽视，巴勒斯坦民众的基本权利长期没有得到根本保障。
"History has proved that violence cannot bring lasting peace and a cycle of violence and revenge only leads to further suffering," he said, adding that China will go ahead with unremitting efforts to promote a comprehensive, just and lasting resolution to the question of Palestine.
汪文斌说：“历史证明，武力无法带来持久和平，以暴易暴只会陷入冤冤相报的恶性循环。”中方将为推动巴勒斯坦问题早日全面公正持久解决不懈努力.
