"IDF Withdraws Troops from Southern Gaza, Ending Invasion"

The IDF has ended its active ground invasion of the Gaza Strip and completely withdrawn from southern Gaza, following the mistaken killing of seven humanitarian aid workers and pressure from the US. While Palestinians in southern Gaza can now move freely, those in northern Gaza remain cut off. The withdrawal may lead to a focus on whether the IDF will invade Rafah, a potential deal for hostages, or further concessions to Hamas. The IDF's operation at Shifa Hospital demonstrates its ability to quickly penetrate and take down Hamas if necessary.
