On Wednesday, Israel intensified its offensive in Gaza, resulting in the deaths of at least 16 Palestinians across the territory, including individuals seeking refuge in a school in Gaza City. These developments unfold as the world anticipates a response from Hamas to U.S. President Donald Trump's peace initiative.

The ongoing conflict, spurred by Hamas' October 7 attack on southern Israel, has led to extensive casualties, with more than 66,000 Palestinians killed, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. The confrontation continues to strain region-wide relations, demanding comprehensive measures to address the resulting humanitarian plight.

Amidst these tensions, President Trump's peace proposal, which calls for Hamas to disarm and the release of Palestinian prisoners, has received varied international reactions. The international community remains divided on its potential for sustainable peace, as widespread displacement and resource scarcity continue to affect communities in Gaza.
