'We're now witnessing an open-ended Israeli war upon Hamas but also upon civilians in Gaza'

 The situation in the Gaza Strip is getting worse all the time and approaching humanity's "darkest hour", the World Health Organization said Tuesday. Israel declared war on Hamas after the militant group's October 7 attacks that killed 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and which saw around 240 hostages taken back to Gaza, according to Israeli authorities. Israel has vowed to eradicate Hamas and secure the release of all the hostages. The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza says the war has killed nearly 15,900 people in the territory. As Gaza reaches 'humanity's darkest hour', according to the WHO, FRANCE 24 is joined by Scott Lucas, Political Analyst and Professor of International Politics at the Clinton Institute, University College Dublin.
