Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant signaled a potential ground invasion of Gaza, emphasizing the conflict’s escalation following a surge of violence since October 7, when Hamas gunmen reportedly killed 1,400 Israelis. International figures, including British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and U.S. President Joe Biden, visited the region, while a Gaza hospital explosion’s cause remains contested between Israel and Palestinian narratives. The ongoing conflict has had devastating humanitarian implications, with thousands dead, wounded, and displaced in Gaza.
  

Key Points: 

  1. Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant told troops near the Gaza border they might soon see the Palestinian enclave “from inside,” hinting at a possible ground invasion.
  2. The tension escalated following an incident on October 7, where Hamas gunmen in Gaza reportedly killed 1,400 Israelis, leading to retaliatory air strikes by Israel.
  3. British PM Rishi Sunak and U.S. President Joe Biden visited the region, showing Western support against Hamas militants, amidst global concerns about the humanitarian crisis.
  4. Controversy surrounds a hospital explosion in Gaza; Palestinians attribute it to an Israeli airstrike, but Israel claims it resulted from a failed rocket launch by Palestinian militants.
  5. The humanitarian toll from the conflict includes over 3,500 dead and more than 12,000 wounded in Gaza, with residents demanding an end to the bombardments.
