Israel's New Wartime Government: A Unified Front Against Hamas
The death toll in Gaza has risen to over 1,300 Palestinians, with over 6,000 wounded, as Israeli airstrikes continue and supplies to the besieged Strip remain cut off. Israel has stated that there will be no humanitarian aid until all Israeli hostages are freed. The United Nations has warned of a "humanitarian catastrophe" in Gaza, while the Red Cross has pleaded for fuel to be allowed in to prevent overwhelmed hospitals from becoming morgues. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of Israeli troops are poised for a ground invasion of Gaza, and Jewish parents in the UK express fear for their children's safety as schools increase security measures. London Mayor Sadiq Khan has urged the UK government to support humanitarian access to Gaza.
