Israel defies UN court, continues Rafah operation amid casualties

Israel continues its offensive in Rafah, Gaza, despite a UN court ruling to halt the assault. About 900,000 people have fled, and humanitarian aid deliveries are hindered. The International Court of Justice ordered Israel to stop its operation, but Israel vows non-compliance. Over 1,200 civilians died in Hamas's assault, with ongoing conflict and casualties. Efforts for a ceasefire have failed, with international pressure mounting on Israel.
