Israel Palestine Conflict: According to the Israel Defence Forces, Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad have increased their rocket launches into Israel from the Gaza Strip. Israel’s declared “total siege” of Gaza is probably going to ease, with Tel Aviv permitting some aid to pass via the Rafah border into Gaza.

Reports stated that the US provided Israel with its “private backing” for the ground invasion of Gaza, despite the fact that the Israeli government has not released any new statements regarding the operation.

He added that there’s a good chance the crisis would spread to other parts of the region.
