Israel has implemented a strict blockade on the Gaza Strip and has launched a massive military operation against the Hamas-controlled enclave. The Israeli government has mobilized a record 300,000 reservists and has conducted air strikes on Gaza. In response, Hamas has threatened to execute hostages for every new airstrike that targets Palestinian civilians without warning. The death toll has risen to over 1,500 people, with casualties on both sides. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared that the campaign has just begun and promised to change the Middle East. Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has ordered a complete siege on Gaza, cutting off electricity, food, and fuel supplies. The Israeli government has also decided to stop water deliveries to Gaza. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) has called up the largest number of reservists in the country’s history and is preparing for a ground offensive into Gaza. The IDF has released videos of its strikes on terrorist targets in Gaza. The violence has escalated beyond Gaza, with militants crossing into Israeli territory from Lebanon. The international community, including the US, UK, Germany, France, and Italy, has expressed support for Israel and condemned Hamas’s acts of terrorism. Qatar has been mediating talks between Israel and Hamas to secure a deal for the release of hostages. However, there is no immediate progress. The US is providing additional support to Israel, treating the conflict differently due to the severity of attacks on Israeli civilians. The EU is reviewing its funding to Palestine in response to Hamas’s attack. Humanitarian groups are warning of a dire situation in Gaza, with a potential humanitarian emergency. UN Secretary-General António Guterres has called for access to urgent humanitarian assistance for civilians in Gaza. The conflict has also affected the energy sector, with Chevron halting gas production in the region, leading to a rise in gas and oil prices. Several international airlines have suspended flights to Israel due to the ongoing conflict.
