Israeli forces pushed deep into the ruins of Gaza’s northern edge on Monday to recapture an area where they had claimed to have defeated Hamas months ago, while tanks and troops pushed across a highway into Rafah in the enclave’s south. An all-out Israeli offensive on Rafah would provoke “anarchy” without eliminating Hamas, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Sunday.

This is crazy
WHEN will the nations of Europe STOP supporting Israel? You are on the WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY.
Did hamas went into Israel and didn't kill the civilians…
gazans no longer singing & dancing on the streets
So "IDF clashes with civilians"?
why usa support israel that that that much i want to know ? i wish my parents support me like that
Pure evil by IDF😈😈👿👿👿👿
Palestinian needs divine intervention to save children and women.
Imagine Mr. Sinwar as the prime minister of the new Gaza-Palestinians state. I think the world is not thinking about the future of Gazans. How long will you continue to send aid to Gaza without fixing the main issue and giving the Gazan a credible leader!!!!
The resistance are also in civilian attire
