"Israel's Month of Silence: UN Urges Immediate End to Gaza War as Israeli Army Advances"

Israel observed a minute of silence to mark a month since the deadly Hamas attacks that killed 1,400 people and took over 200 hostages. Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu stated that Israel will take "overall security responsibility" of the Gaza Strip indefinitely after the war with Hamas. The UN Security Council failed to agree on a resolution regarding the conflict, while UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres emphasized the need to protect civilians. The death toll in the Gaza Strip has risen to at least 10,328 people, including 4,237 children.
