The Israel Defense Forces announced an end to daily humanitarian pauses in Gaza City, citing the area as a 'dangerous combat zone' ahead of a major offensive. While aid efforts will continue elsewhere in the Gaza Strip, the military is preparing to capture Gaza City, urging civilians to evacuate south. The move comes amid international opposition and concerns over the safety of hostages and soldiers, as well as the worsening humanitarian crisis, with famine declared in northern Gaza. Recent military operations in the Zeitoun neighborhood have targeted Hamas infrastructure, including tunnels and weapons caches, as fighting intensifies in the region.
