Escalating Violence in Israel-Gaza Conflict Continues
Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s leader, stated that the military operations in Gaza are far from over, despite calls from the US to reduce the intensity of attacks.
Meanwhile, the US carried out airstrikes in Iraq against Iranian-backed militias in response to an attack on a US airbase. The situation is complex, with rising tensions in the region.
The UN reports mass evacuations in Gaza, and hospitals are overwhelmed with casualties. A proposed ceasefire plan by Egypt involves releasing hostages and prisoners.
The conflict, which began on October 7, has claimed thousands of lives, mostly civilians. Despite international calls, both Israel and Hamas have yet to agree to a ceasefire.
The situation remains dire, with no safe places for civilians in Gaza.(Source : BBC)
