Hamas and its roots in Gaza
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict entered a new chapter when Hamas
attacked Israel on 7 October, killing and kidnapping military personnel and
civilians. Israel has responded with air strikes on Gaza, cutting it off
from water and fuel.
Israel's defence minister, Yoav Gallant, has declared that its forces
are moving to a “full offence” and that “Gaza will never go back to what it
was”.
Given this reaction, experts are asking if the actions of Hamas, which
does not recognise Israel as a state, might end up harming the Palestinian
cause, as Gaza is under total siege. Sergio García Magariño provides seven
keys to understanding what drives Hamas and why it has chosen a path of such
violence.
International relations specialist Marie Durrieu has conducted
research in Gaza, asking its residents what their lives are like and what
their expectations are for the future. Her analysis explains why the
desperation makes it easy for Hamas to recruit new members, fuel hatred of
Israel and perpetrate attacks such as the ones that took place last weekend.
The international community supposedly agrees that, in armed
conflicts, children should be protected from violence. Attacking a child is
considered one of the ultimate signs of brutality. But the truth is that,
between the shootings, abductions, killings and bombings, there are many
child victims on both sides of this conflict, as Jason Hart points out.
The Conversation is providing coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict from across our international network. A summary of the content is
updating regularly here this week.
From our science and health desks
Our science and health editors have, as always, been seeking out
discoveries to keep The Conversation Europe's readers up to date. Our
roundup includes new research by scientists in Sweden looking at the
biomarker profiles of centenarians, which suggests a potential link between
metabolic health, nutrition and exceptional longevity.
We also look at the health benefits of nuts and the negative effects
of light pollution.
