The conflict began in early October, with Hamas militants crossing into Israel, leading to casualties on both sides.

Diplomatic efforts have aimed at providing humanitarian aid to Gaza, which has been under an Israeli siege, with many homes damaged or destroyed.

Western leaders have generally supported Israel’s campaign against Hamas, while concerns persist about the well-being of civilians in Gaza.
