From what I can gather this conflict as been going on a long time and the Hamas group has existed for a while too. Why are all the news cycles suddenly focusing on this the past few weeks?

    Recently, Hamas carried out their largest and most brutal attack on Israel, killing many innocent people and generating international shock

    Israel is now responding by invading Gaza: a dense, poor city with about 2 million people in it to try to wipe out Hamas.

    There is now worldwide outrage at Israel’s response, which is disproportionately deadly due to their advanced military and billions of foreign aid. People are protesting Israel as an apartheid state and claiming that they are now pursuing genocidal goals.
