Israel declared war on the Palestinian extremist organization Hamas after Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. Iltalehti follows the war and its effects in this story.
In an October attack, Hamas invaded the areas surrounding the Gaza Strip it controls, killing 1,200 people. In addition, it took more than 200 people hostage.
According to local authorities, more than 31,000 Palestinians have died in Israel’s counterattack on the Gaza Strip.
In January, the conflict in the Middle East took another step on the path of escalation, when the United States and Britain and their allies attacked the Houthi rebels in Yemen. The Iran-backed Houthis are fighting on the same front as Hamas against Israel.
