A Palestinian man covered with dust carries an injured baby girl into the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City following Israeli strikes amid the ongoing battles between Israel and the Hamas militants. Israel has now launched what it is calling the second phase of its assault to destroy Hamas in Gaza, a conflict Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described as his country’s “second war for independence.” Israeli troops are inside the Gaza perimeter — probing, destroying tunnels and learning in close-quarter combat about the Palestinian fighters who shocked the world when they attacked Israel on October 7.
