Nearly eight weeks because the begin of Israel’s bombardment of Gaza, at the very least 15,000 Palestinians have been killed.
Gaza City is now in ruins, with nearly half of the buildings in northern Gaza broken. But is Israel any nearer to toppling Hamas? And if Hamas is destroyed, who might truly fill the facility vacuum?
