Netanyahu Vows to Fight Until the End Amid Truce Demands in Israel-Hamas War

Communications have been partially restored in Gaza after a three-day outage, while UN aid trucks have started entering the enclave for the first time since the war broke out. The Israeli army claims to have discovered a large tunnel network equipped with weapons ready for use by Hamas. The French Minister of Foreign Affairs has called for an immediate and lasting truce in Gaza, expressing concern over the humanitarian situation and the fate of hostages. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to fight "to the very end" and rejected calls for a ceasefire, while the UK and Germany joined other global powers in calling for a sustainable ceasefire. Israel's conduct in the war has come under scrutiny after the accidental killing of three hostages, prompting an investigation at the highest level.
