Israel expands Gaza blockade
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the Israeli military to expand its control over the Gaza Strip, amidst accusations from Hamas that Israel has been "undermining" the ceasefire agreed upon in October. Currently, Israel controls about 53% of the Gaza territory, despite the agreement stipulating a gradual withdrawal once an international security force is deployed—something that has not yet occurred. This increased Israeli control has led to worsening conditions for more than two million Palestinians living in an increasingly confined space.
