History

Historical Context

In December 2008 Israel launched Operation Cast Lead, a three-week IDF campaign that delivered more than 2,360 air strikes and killed roughly 1,400 Palestinians in Gaza. The offensive followed Hamas’s 2007 takeover of the strip and prompted diplomatic pressure that led Egypt, Qatar and Turkey to broker cease-fire talks in 2024, echoing the 2008-09 negotiations over Hamas disarmament and Israeli troop withdrawals.
