"Netanyahu Declares Date for IDF Invasion of Rafah Amid Israel-Hamas War"

Palestinians return to Khan Younis in southern Gaza after Israeli troops withdraw, finding their city unrecognizable with thousands of buildings destroyed or damaged. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu escalates plans to invade Rafah, while international efforts to broker a cease-fire deal with Hamas are ongoing. The war, now in its seventh month, has left vast swaths of the territory unlivable for its 2.3 million people, with an estimated 55% of buildings in Khan Younis destroyed or damaged. Many Palestinians have no homes to return to, and the city is likely filled with dangerous unexploded ordnance left by the fighting.
