Israel's military continues ground operations in Gaza, encircling part of Rafah city near Egypt. The war has killed at least 50,021 people in the territory, according to the health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza. Israeli troops aim to dismantle terrorist infrastructure and eliminate militants in the area. The resumption of Israeli strikes and the escalation in Gaza have prompted calls for an immediate end to the violence and the resumption of dialogue for a definitive ceasefire. The fighting in Gaza has also coincided with a protest movement in Israel against Netanyahu's policies and the war.
