Israeli tanks push deeper into Gaza City as Trump talks peace
- On August 29, 2025, the Israeli military announced it would no longer observe tactical pauses in Gaza City, designating the area as an active combat zone as it launched an operation to capture the city.
- This escalation follows the Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7, 2023, which resulted in 1,219 fatalities and the capture of 251 hostages, with approximately 20 of those hostages thought to still be alive.
- Defense Minister Israel Katz approved the military plan, authorized 60,000 reservists, and vowed to destroy Gaza City unless Hamas ends the war on Israel's terms.
- Prime Minister Netanyahu declared that efforts will continue tirelessly until all hostages, both survivors and those who have died, are safely returned, while families of the captives hold protests calling for an end to the conflict.
- The declaration escalates fighting and halts humanitarian pauses, intensifying risks for civilians and straining Israel’s relations with European allies amid calls for ceasefire and aid.
