The Israeli army is determined to end the conflict with Hamas in Gaza by continuing airstrikes, despite international pressure for a humanitarian ceasefire. The army has announced the deaths of 115 soldiers since the start of the offensive and has recovered the bodies of six Palestinians in the West Bank. There have also been ongoing protests in Tel Aviv and intense bombings in southern Gaza. As the conflict stretches on, the death toll continues to rise, with 240 fatalities reported by Hamas on Friday. Israeli officials have stated that the war will continue with or without support from the international community.
