Two years after Hamas’ attack on Israel that killed 1,200 people, Gaza has been reduced to 51 million tonnes of rubble. Israel’s military response destroyed 92% of buildings, killing over 67,000 Palestinians and displacing 1.9 million. The UN says it will take over 22 years to clear the debris. Food shortages, famine, and disease now affect almost all households. The US-backed Gaza peace plan by Donald Trump offers hope but has not yet been accepted by Hamas. Experts warn that unless root issues are addressed, peace will remain out of reach. (PC: India Today)
