Israel has decimated Hamas’s military wing, along with much of Gaza. But the group’s small-scale, hit-and-run approach poses a threat in the enclave’s north.

Thousands of Palestinian civilians have been filmed fleeing northern Gaza amid fierce fighting and a resurgence of Hamas activity. Footage shows hundreds of Gazans moving through the rubble of a destroyed street as an Israeli armoured car watches on from the side.

Israel said it hit Hezbollah's intelligence headquarters in its latest strikes on the Lebanese capital Beirut on Sunday, while officials in Gaza said rescuers were still recovering people from the rubble after an Israeli attack that killed dozens.

The stands taken by the two sides signal, at least publicly, that they have not moved any closer to ending their conflict.
