Key takeaways:
- The Israeli military has announced an expansion of its ground offensive against Hamas in Gaza.
- Many of Gaza’s 2.3 million people have been forced to flee to the south after Israel ordered civilians to leave the north.
- The international community is calling for an end to the violence in Gaza, and for both sides to come to the negotiating table.
The Israeli military has announced that its ground offensive against Hamas in Gaza has expanded to every part of the region. This comes after the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack in Israel that killed about 1,200, mostly civilians.
The Israeli military has ordered more evacuations in the crowded south of Gaza, and has vowed that operations against Hamas will be “no less strength” than its shattering ones in the north. Many of Gaza’s 2.3 million people have been forced to flee to the south after Israel ordered civilians to leave the north in the early days of the war.
Heavy bombardment followed evacuation orders, and Palestinians have reported that they are running out of places to go in the sealed-off territory bordering Israel and Egypt. The situation in Gaza is becoming increasingly dire, with many civilians struggling to find shelter and safety.
The international community is calling for an end to the violence in Gaza, and for both sides to come to the negotiating table. In the meantime, the Israeli military is continuing its operations against Hamas, with no end in sight.
