Another airstrike in Gaza’s Sabra neighborhood killed Wael al-Khour, a Hamas official, and seven family members. The Israeli military is reviewing these incidents. Israeli forces continue raids in northern Gaza, aiming to combat Hamas. They claim to have killed hundreds of militants since early October.
Efforts to establish a ceasefire have stagnated. Both Hamas and Israeli refuse to negotiate. Qatar, Egypt, and the U.S. are trying to mediate but will pause until both sides show readiness to talk. The conflict, sparked by Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israeli communities, has caused widespread casualties and severe destruction in Gaza. Qatar, a U.S. ally and regional mediator, denied reports about the Hamas political office’s future in Doha, affirming its role as a link in the conflict. (Reuters, CNN)
