The full-scale war between Israel and Hamas militants has resulted in the loss of over 10,000 lives — mostly Palestinian civilians — within a month since the conflict began. Ever since the Hamas attack on Israel caught the nation by surprise on October 7, the Israeli armed forces have relentlessly bombarded Gaza with the aim of “wiping out” Hamas.

Calls for a humanitarian pause in the war continue to come from across the world in order to allow Gazan residents flee the warzone and for aid to come through for the isolated land that is running low on resources. Hamas continues to hold over 200 Israeli citizens hostage from the October 7 incursion.
