A top Israeli official has stated that the effort to eliminate Hamas from Gaza will likely require at least seven more months of fighting, despite increasing global calls for a ceasefire. The aftermath of a deadly Israeli airstrike in Rafah has revealed significant devastation, with a camp for displaced Palestinians being struck, resulting in the deaths of at least 45 individuals and injuries to around 200 others, as reported by the Palestinian Canadian Ministry of Health.

Analysis of video footage from the scene indicates that the munitions used in the airstrike were of U.S. origin, specifically a GBU-39 small diameter bomb. The former Israeli ambassador to the United States, Michael Oren, discussed the incident, emphasizing that Israel aimed for precision in targeting Hamas leaders but is now investigating the tragic outcome of the strike.
