Israel is massing troops and calling up 9,000 reservists along the Gaza frontier, signaling a potential ground invasion of the Hamas-ruled territory amidst escalating conflict.
Intense fighting continues with Israeli air and ground strikes on Gaza, met by nearly 2,000 Hamas rocket launches into Israel, including major cities like Tel Aviv.
The four-day violence has resulted in at least 109 Palestinian deaths, including many children, and 7 Israeli deaths, highlighting the severe human cost.
Adding to the crisis, Israel is grappling with its worst Jewish-Arab communal violence in decades, with clashes erupting for a fourth night in towns like Lod.
Despite Egyptian mediation efforts for a cease-fire, no progress has been made, further deepening the conflict and complicating Israel's internal political stability.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
