Calls for Gaza Cease-Fire Grow as Israel Vows to Dismantle Hamas

Israel's European allies, including the UK, Germany, and France, are calling for a cease-fire in the conflict with Hamas, expressing concern over civilian casualties and the displacement of Palestinians.

Domestic and international pressure for renewed negotiations with Hamas is likely to increase following the accidental killing of three Israeli hostages by the military.
