Military Divides Gaza as Truce Negotiations Stumble
Israeli forces announced Wednesday they now control 30% of Gaza, carving new 'security zones' like the 'Morag Corridor' that splits southern Gaza. A military video reveals Khan Younis—once the region’s largest city—virtually flattened, with only skeletal ruins remaining. 🌍💥
Meanwhile, ceasefire talks hang by a thread. Hamas insists any deal must include full Israeli withdrawal and reconstruction guarantees, calling proposals without these terms a 'political trap.' Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered negotiators to pursue hostage releases but vows to 'continue the war until victory.'
Gaza’s Humanitarian Crisis Deepens
Gaza health officials report over 51,000 deaths since October 2023, with no humanitarian aid entering since March 2. The newly established 'Netzarim Corridor' isolates northern Gaza, compounding challenges for displaced families. 💔
As air strikes resume, analysts warn the conflict risks spiraling into a sadly familiar stalemate: military gains offset by geopolitical gridlock. Stay tuned for updates on this evolving crisis. 📉🔍
