In the ongoing Israeli-Gaza conflict, Israeli ground forces are intensifying their operations, advancing over two miles into the besieged Gaza Strip.

As the Israeli Defense Forces expand their ground campaign, the situation grows increasingly desperate with thousands of Palestinians facing intense airstrikes and a shortage of essential supplies.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has signaled a commitment to a long and difficult war aimed at destroying Hamas and preventing further attacks on Israeli soil. The major question is how are forces differentiating between Hamas and regular Palestinian citizens?

Additionally, an alarming incident occurred in Russia’s Dagestan region where an angry mob disrupted an airport following a flight from Tel Aviv, displaying anti-Semitic signs and causing authorities to close the facility.

The United Arab Emirates is seeking a UN Security Council resolution for an immediate humanitarian pause, while U.S. President Joe Biden is pressing for increased humanitarian aid flow into Gaza.
