Israel Expands Gaza Offensive With Strikes on Hospital and New Security Zones

Israeli forces intensify military operations, targeting Hamas infrastructure and enforcing evacuations, as negotiations in Cairo falter.

Israeli airstrikes hit the Al-Ahli hospital in Gaza City, causing significant damage shortly after issuing evacuation warnings.
The Israeli government claims the hospital was used by Hamas as a command center, though this remains contested by Palestinian sources.
Military operations have expanded with the establishment of the Morag-Achse corridor, effectively dividing Gaza into three sections and creating new buffer zones.
Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians face displacement due to forced evacuations, with the UN warning of potential violations of international law.
Hamas and Israeli representatives are engaged in talks in Cairo, but Israel insists on Hamas' dismantling and hostage release as preconditions for a ceasefire.
