The Israeli military carried out airstrikes targeting Hamas sites in Gaza on Friday, killing Medkhat Mabasher, a Hamas commander in Khan Younis, and hitting tunnel networks and launch sites. This comes amid over three weeks of violence between Israel and Hamas. An Israeli aircraft also crashed in Gaza due to a technical issue. Former U.S. official Aaron David Miller told the BBC that Israel faces constraints, including uncertainty over its objectives to end Hamas's existence. He said Hamas only needs to survive to claim victory. Overall the conflict continues with no clear resolution in sight, as Israel hits Hamas sites but so far has not achieved its stated goal of eliminating the group.
