Seven months into the conflict triggered by Hamas's October 7 attack, Israeli forces are engaged in fierce battles with Palestinian militants in Gaza, focusing on Rafah near the Egyptian border and new flashpoints in northern and central areas. An incident of friendly fire in Jabalia resulted in the deaths of five Israeli soldiers and injuries to seven others. Despite heavy fighting and Israeli airstrikes across Gaza, Prime Minister Netanyahu has ordered an offensive in Rafah, claiming mass evacuations have prevented a humanitarian catastrophe. He emphasised that planning for Gaza's future governance is premature until Hamas is defeated. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant countered by calling for Palestinian entities, supported by international actors, to govern Gaza post-conflict. Meanwhile, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh declared that Hamas and other Palestinian factions would determine Gaza's governance, reiterating demands for a permanent ceasefire and the lifting of the siege. The conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with 278 Israeli troops and at least 35,233 Palestinians killed, and has led to severe shortages of essential supplies in Gaza.

In a significant development, U.S. President Joe Biden revealed that Israel has proposed a "roadmap" to terminate its nearly eight-month-long conflict in the Gaza Strip. In a speech from the White House on Friday, Biden outlined Israel's three-phase plan, which aims to cease hostilities and pave the way for peace and reconstruction. The initial phase of Israel's offer involves a six-week period during which Israeli forces will withdraw from all populated areas in Gaza. This phase also includes a comprehensive ceasefire and the release of numerous hostages, including women, the elderly, and the wounded, in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced on Thursday that troops from the 98th Division had successfully dismantled and destroyed a network of terror tunnels in Jabalia, Gaza. These tunnels contained the bodies of hostages killed during the October 7 attacks by Hamas.
In recent weeks, the IDF has recovered multiple bodies from Hamas's extensive network of terror tunnels throughout the Gaza Strip. The latest operation resulted in the rescue and recovery of seven hostages, identified as Shani Louk, Amit Buskila, Ron Benjamin, Yitzchak Gelernter, Hanan Yablonka, Michel Nisenbaum, and Orion Hernandez. Tragically, it was confirmed that all seven individuals had been killed on October 7, and their bodies had subsequently been abducted by Hamas.
