Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has gathered his emergency war cabinet and vowed to "demolish Hamas" as Israel prepares for a ground invasion in Gaza. The conflict has resulted in over 3,700 deaths on both sides, with many casualties being children and women. The Israeli military has called for residents of northern Gaza to evacuate, but some civilians do not feel safe anywhere. The US has deployed additional support to the region, and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is working to prevent further escalation. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is worsening, with aid deliveries delayed and negotiations ongoing for safe transportation and evacuation. President Biden has criticized Hamas for endangering the lives of Palestinians.
