Israel asserts that its military actions are aimed at dismantling the military and governing capabilities of Hamas, the Islamist group that has governed Gaza since 2007. Israel claims that this group is committed to its destruction and poses a significant threat to its national security. However, the brutality of the war has had a dire impact on the people of Gaza, exacerbating pre-existing issues and creating new ones. As the conflict continues, the humanitarian crisis has become more acute, with essential services and daily life disrupted on an unprecedented scale.
