Story summary

Three years after Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, much of Gaza remains in ruins. The conflict left around two million Palestinians displaced, many living in tents among the widespread destruction. Over 74,245 Palestinians have been killed since the attack, with more than 1,462 dying even after a ceasefire was announced in October 2025. Despite this fragile truce, Israeli strikes continue to impact Gaza's infrastructure and civilian life. The war has devastated education, healthcare systems, and economies, turning daily living into an ordeal for survivors who struggle with dire living conditions.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
