Gaza: Israel-Hamas war that began following an attack on October 7 by Hamas militant group continues and it seems that it will not come to end soon as proclaimed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who has repeatedly defied international calls for a ceasefire.
Israel said it was “intensifying the fighting” against Hamas in Gaza, where relentless strikes across the Palestinian territory exacerbated the dire conditions for civilians in the war’s 12th week.
The conflict has heightened tensions across the Middle East where Iran — which supports Hamas — on Monday accused Israel of killing a senior Revolutionary Guards general in Syria and vowed revenge.
Pope Francis decried the “desperate humanitarian situation” in Gaza. During his traditional Christmas message he called for an immediate ceasefire and the freeing of hostages.
