    About this ebook

    The current war in Gaza is a major turning point in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It is also a significant event in the broader context of the Middle East.

     

    The war began on October 7th, 2023, when Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel. Hamas is a Palestinian militant group that controls the Gaza Strip. Israel responded with retaliatory airstrikes, and the death toll in Gaza has now surpassed 400 at the time of this book.

     

    The Israeli government has declared a "state of war" and has ordered a complete siege of the Gaza Strip. This means that Israel is blocking all access to the territory, including food, fuel, and electricity.

     

    There are growing fears of a ground invasion of Gaza, as Israeli troops have been amassing at the border. The United Nations has warned that a ground invasion could lead to a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.

     

    The international community has called on both sides to cease fire and to engage in dialogue. However, neither side has shown any willingness to compromise.

    This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the current conflict and its implications. It examines the causes of the war, the military situation on the ground, and the potential consequences of the conflict for Israel, Palestine, and the wider region.
