The Gaza War has entered its 12th month, originating from Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel. Negotiations for a truce remain at an impasse with both sides steadfast in their demands. The conflict, marked by severe casualties and international tensions, shows no sign of resolution.
The Gaza War, initiated by Hamas' attack on Israel on October 7 last year, has entered its 12th month with fading hopes of a truce.
Both sides remain entrenched in their positions, with Hamas demanding a full Israeli withdrawal and Israel insisting on maintaining troops along the Gaza-Egypt border.
International mediation by the United States, Qatar, and Egypt has yet to yield results, while the conflict has resulted in over 40,939 deaths in Gaza, mostly women and children, as per the UN.
Recent violence included Israeli airstrikes in Gaza and exchanges of fire with Lebanon's Hezbollah, highlighting the ongoing regional tensions.
The war continues to draw significant international condemnation and calls for a ceasefire.
