The Israeli military suffered its deadliest day on January 22 since the war in Gaza began, with 24 soldiers killed in two attacks. That brought Israel's total military deaths to more than 200 since October 7.
Israel has called up about 360,000 reservists, and tens of thousands of soldiers have been sent to fight in Gaza, where more than 26,000 Palestinians have been killed in three months.
Israel says that the city of Gaza is now completely encircled, with many residents now living in tents near the Rafah border.
This week on Beyond the Headlines, host Nada AlTaher analyses Israel’s military moves.

What is hepatitis?
Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, which can lead to fibrosis (scarring), cirrhosis or liver cancer.
There are 5 main hepatitis viruses, referred to as types A, B, C, D and E.
Hepatitis C is mostly transmitted through exposure to infective blood. This can occur through blood transfusions, contaminated injections during medical procedures, and through injecting drugs. Sexual transmission is also possible, but is much less common.
People infected with hepatitis C experience few or no symptoms, meaning they can live with the virus for years without being diagnosed. This delay in treatment can increase the risk of significant liver damage.
There are an estimated 170 million carriers of Hepatitis C around the world.
The virus causes approximately 399,000 fatalities each year worldwide, according to WHO.
