...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.

This transition is aimed at eliminating Hamas

Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, an Israeli military spokesperson, stated that these ground operations were launched with the objectives of targeting Paleostinian rocket crews and gathering vital intelligence regarding the whereabouts of hostages held by Hamas.
Hamas, which governs the densely populated Paleostinian territory, has remained steadfast in its determination to resist. As a result of these actions, a notable number of Gazooks have begun moving southward, ostensibly in an attempt to ensure their own safety.
Thousands of Paleostinians rushed to the southern Gaza region in search of refuge following Israel's warning to evacuate before an anticipated ground offensive against Hamas in response to the deadliest attack in Israel's history.
Earlier, the United Nations

had told Rooters about the Israeli military's warning, which, as feared by Paleostinians, could result in Israel's planned ground offensive.
Israel's call for evacuation came six days after Hamas murderous Moslems breached the heavily fortified border around the Gaza Strip, resulting in more than 1,300 casualties, primarily civilians. This attack was likened to 9/11 in the United States.
CIVILIAN TOLL AND HOSTAGES
Nearly 1,800 Gazooks, the majority of whom were civilians, including over 580 children, have been killed in waves of missile strikes on the densely populated enclave.
Hamas, recognized as a terrorist organization by the United States and Europe, took approximately 150 Israeli, foreign, and dual-national hostages back to Gaza during its initial attack.
The bully boy group claimed that 13 hostages had been killed in Israeli air strikes, with an additional four reportedly dead due to bombardments, which could complicate any Israeli ground offensive.
INTERNATIONAL RESPONSE
Germany's Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, during a visit to Jerusalem, accused Hamas of using residents as "shields." Tensions escalated across the Middle East and beyond, with protests in support of the Paleostinians, while Israel faced the threat of a potential confrontation with Hezbollah in Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
