Summary: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu plans to launch an incursion into Gaza's Rafah city amid cease-fire negotiations with Hamas. Netanyahu aims to destroy Hamas' battalions in Rafah, regardless of a truce deal. The war has displaced over 80% of Gaza's population, with more than 34,000 Palestinians killed. The proposed deal involves releasing hostages and pausing fighting for six weeks, but disagreements persist over long-term peace terms.
