Israel Ends Gaza Operation, Residents Return to Devastation

Israeli troops have withdrawn from the Jabalya refugee camp in Gaza after a nearly three-week operation, leaving widespread devastation. The Israel Defense Forces reported killing hundreds of militants, destroying underground tunnels, and recovering hostages. President Biden outlined a three-part ceasefire and hostage release plan, which includes Israeli troop withdrawal from populated areas, a prisoner exchange, and increased humanitarian aid. Gaza residents returning to Jabalya found their homes destroyed, with over 1,000 homes estimated to be demolished. The ongoing conflict has severely impacted Gaza's health infrastructure and humanitarian aid distribution.
