The war in Gaza has entered its 100th day. Since Hamas led its deadly Oct. 7 assault on Israel, more than 23,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza and most of the enclave’s population has been displaced by the Israeli military’s war, according to Gazan health officials.
More than 120 hostages are believed to be held by Hamas and other militant groups, according to Israeli officials.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel has vowed to keep fighting until he has achieved all of Israel’s goals, despite growing uncertainty over the outcome, international alarm over the mounting death toll in Gaza and fears of a broader regional conflagration.

In Israel, there is a staunch commitment to eliminating Hamas and returning the hostages at almost any cost, even if that takes many months.
Internationally, impatience is growing in the face of a deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and the U.S. has urged Israel to scale down its campaign, while many other countries have called for an immediate cease-fire.
However, the Israeli prime Minister’s every move, utterances and posture continue to signal a war far from its end. “We are continuing the war until the end — until total victory, until we achieve all of our goals,” Netanyahu said on Saturday.
