Israeli forces conducted an overnight ground raid into the northern Gaza Strip as part of preparations for the "next stages of the war" with Hamas. The raid was accompanied by relentless airstrikes that have displaced 1.4 million people and caused Gaza's healthcare system to collapse. Aid agencies and regional countries have warned that an Israeli ground incursion would result in further civilian casualties. The UN estimates that over 7,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the airstrikes began, while Israel claims that Hamas killed more than 1,400 people in an attack in October.
