An estimated 250,000 people are affected, including those previously displaced. Israel recently ended an offensive and withdrew troops from the area, but the evacuation suggests Hamas has regrouped. Prime Minister Netanyahu asserts Israel is close to eliminating Hamas. Meanwhile, Western leaders urge a ceasefire. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has pressured Hamas to agree but Hamas insists on retaining hostages until Israeli forces fully withdraw. The situation remains tense with hopes for a ceasefire.
