Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has revealed plans to capture and indefinitely hold all of Gaza, emphasizing an "intensive" approach. The Israeli military intends to clear and maintain control over the territory, unlike previous strategies that saw troops withdrawing after raids. Despite the plan's aim to weaken Hamas, it has sparked concerns over worsening the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The UN criticized the strategy, claiming it could deny vital supplies to vulnerable civilians, while the ongoing blockade continues to amplify suffering in the region. (PC: Reuters)
