Israel's military campaign against Hamas has weakened the group but not crushed it, a year after its attack on Israel. Hamas has lost leaders and fighters, and much of the territory it controls has been destroyed. However, Hamas remains in control of Gaza and an end to its hold over the region is still elusive. The war has resulted in the deaths of thousands of people, mostly civilians, and has caused widespread destruction. Gaza's economy has been severely impacted, leaving the majority of its population in poverty. While Hamas faces criticism and isolation, it still enjoys support and some believe it will eventually defeat Israel.
