Israel's Intensified Air Strikes on Gaza Signal Next Stage of Conflict

Israel has announced that it will intensify its aerial strikes over Gaza in preparation for the "next stage" of its military operation, which is likely to be a ground invasion. Meanwhile, food and medical supplies have started crossing into Gaza from Egypt for the first time since the conflict began, addressing a key demand of international leaders. Leaders from various countries have gathered in Cairo to discuss ways to prevent the conflict from escalating further. President Biden has stated that he is in touch with Israeli leaders, while Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for firing missiles at Israel. A pro-Palestinian rally in London drew a massive turnout, and Switzerland has launched a criminal investigation into alleged payments made to Hamas.
