Explosions flare over western Tehran as Iran and its regional partners retaliate in a widening conflict with the US and Israel; Washington warns the war’s most intense bombing campaign is still to come, while approving a $151 million arms sale to Israel and Trump pushes for Iran’s unconditional surrender amid mounting casualties.
Israel's intense bombing campaign in Gaza, which has resulted in the deaths of thousands of civilians and the displacement of millions, is failing to achieve its objectives. The indiscriminate bombing has not weakened Hamas or convinced Gaza's residents to stop supporting the group. History has shown that large-scale bombing campaigns rarely achieve their goals, and Israel would have been better off pursuing surgical strikes against Hamas leaders instead. To achieve lasting security, Israel should adopt a viable alternative strategy, such as taking meaningful steps towards a two-state solution, which would drive a political wedge between Hamas and the Palestinians.
Israeli ground forces have launched a ground operation in southern Gaza, following three days of heavy bombardment. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that they are expanding the ground incursion across all of Gaza, engaging in face-to-face battles with terrorists. The IDF has issued evacuation orders for several districts of Khan Younis, where Hamas leaders are believed to be hiding. The UN has described a "degree of panic" in a Gaza hospital, and the Hamas-run health ministry reports that over 500 people have been killed since the bombing resumed. The situation in Gaza is described as "beyond catastrophic," with hundreds of thousands of people displaced and lacking basic resources.
The death toll continues to rise in Gaza as Israel's bombing campaign intensifies, with officials reporting that 2,215 people, including 724 children and 458 women, have been killed since the start of the Israeli strikes. Over 8,700 people have been injured. Israel, which hasn't updated its casualty figures, has reported over 1,300 deaths from rocket attacks and raids by Hamas fighters into Israeli territory.
