"Examining the Impact and Skepticism Surrounding Israel's Strategy Against Hamas in Gaza"
TL;DR
On October 7, 2023, a large-scale attack by over 1,500 Palestinian militants from Gaza into southern Israel resulted in a massacre, with a history of severe economic sanctions and humanitarian crises in Gaza cited as contributing factors. The Israeli response has been devastating, with over 21,000 Gazans killed, including more than 7,700 children, and widespread destruction of infrastructure. The conflict has escalated beyond previous levels, with Israel's strategy shifting to making Gaza uninhabitable and a global solidarity movement rising in opposition to the violence and in support of Gaza.
