Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to continue Israel's offensive in Gaza until achieving 'total victory' against Hamas and called for continued U.S. support in his address to Congress. Netanyahu's speech follows nine months of conflict sparked by a Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, which killed 1,200 people and led to a prolonged war causing significant civilian casualties and displacements. Meanwhile, tensions on the Israel-Lebanon border have escalated, with Hezbollah launching deeper attacks into Israel and both sides exchanging thousands of strikes. This conflict has displaced tens of thousands in Lebanon and Israel, with a potential for full-scale war looming. The humanitarian crisis is further highlighted by the dire living conditions in Palestinian refugee camps in Beirut, where families face extreme poverty, lack of civil rights, and ongoing struggles for survival.
