"Escalating Attacks in Gaza and Pro-Palestinian March Planned in London"

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that Israel will maintain security control in Gaza but will demilitarize the region after the war, while also insisting on no cease-fire until Hamas releases all of its hostages. Power outages have hit the intensive care unit and pediatric ward at Gaza's main hospital, Al-Shifa, and the United Nations warns of a deteriorating food situation in Gaza. Over 80 counter-protesters were arrested at a pro-Palestinian march in London, and French President Emmanuel Macron called on Israel to stop killing civilians in Gaza. The situation at Al-Shifa hospital is described as catastrophic, with reports of bombings and casualties. The Israel Defense Forces announced evacuation windows for civilians in northern Gaza, and claimed to have killed a Hamas commander holding hostages at a hospital. Israel's military also reported taking control of 11 Hamas positions. The World Health Organization says that half of Gaza's hospitals are not functioning, and Columbia University has suspended the student chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace.
