The article details the ongoing conflict in Gaza, highlighting Israel's actions, including the bombing of UNRWA clinics and schools, resulting in civilian casualties. The Israeli government's strategy involves creating a 'humanitarian zone' while simultaneously pursuing the annexation of land and displacement of the population. Over 1000 Palestinians have been killed since the ceasefire was broken in March.
Hamas is utilizing psychological warfare by keeping hostages in areas targeted by Israeli forces, threatening their lives if Israel continues its operations in those zones. Families of the hostages accuse Netanyahu of prioritizing war over the safety of their loved ones. Netanyahu's refusal to renegotiate the January ceasefire agreement is further fueling the conflict, and he is accused by the opposition of prolonging the war for political gain.
The article mentions UNRWA director Phillipe Lazzarini's concerns about the high number of child casualties in Gaza. The potential return of Donald Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, to the region for negotiations is also noted.
