Israel's Intense Operations in Gaza: Rescuing Hostages and Eliminating Hamas Threat

Israeli special forces have been conducting operations inside Gaza to locate hostages, while the Israeli air force continues its attacks on Hamas. Israel has issued an evacuation order to 120 families in Gaza, but the densely populated area poses a significant challenge. The United States is in talks with Israel and Egypt to secure safe passage for civilians and humanitarian assistance. Doctors Without Borders has condemned Israel's demand to evacuate, stating that over a million people are affected. The United Nations reports that over 423,000 people have been displaced in Gaza. The U.S. has no update on the Americans believed to be held hostage and cannot confirm Hamas' claim of 13 hostages killed by Israeli airstrikes.
