The Israel-Gaza conflict has entered a prolonged phase of military operations with significant humanitarian consequences. Israeli Defense Forces continue operations in multiple sectors of Gaza while maintaining a naval blockade. The conflict has drawn in regional actors, with Hezbollah engagements along the Lebanon border and Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping disrupting global maritime trade. International humanitarian organizations report severe shortages of food, medical supplies, and clean water affecting civilian populations. Diplomatic channels remain active but have yet to produce a comprehensive ceasefire agreement. The conflict has accelerated Israeli development of missile defense systems including Iron Dome, David's Sling, and Arrow interceptors, while highlighting the evolving nature of urban warfare and tunnel combat operations.
