"Netanyahu Predicts Prolonged Israel-Hamas Conflict as Gaza Death Toll Rises"

Israeli military operations in Gaza have resulted in at least 35 deaths, with Prime Minister Netanyahu stating the conflict could continue for months. The strikes have targeted areas including Khan Younis and central Gaza, with the aim of dismantling Hamas' capabilities. The conflict has led to a humanitarian crisis, with a significant portion of Gaza's population displaced and facing starvation. Despite international calls for a ceasefire, Israel has expanded its offensive, and resistance from Hamas continues. The U.S. has shot down missiles from Yemen's Houthi rebels in a related regional incident. Netanyahu's stance on post-war Gaza governance has caused tensions with the Biden administration, and protests within Israel reflect growing impatience with his leadership.
