The Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is opposed to a two-state solution, but many ordinary Israelis and Palestinians don’t feel the same way.
The ICC is seeking arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas leaders that are suspected of committing war crimes in Gaza.
Though the move by the ICC chief prosecutor is a significant one, it’s very unlikely the Israeli or Palestinian leaders will be arrested or face a trial.
Iran’s president and foreign minister killed in helicopter crash – we ask an expert what might happen next.
A selection of our coverage of the conflict in Gaza from the past fortnight.
Negotiations over a ceasefire in Gaza are stalling, in large part because of how the war has gone for both sides.
Diplomatic pressure, rising military casualties and the problem of Israeli hostages in Gaza have not deterred Netanyahu from ordering an offensive on Rafah.
The longer the war drags on, the more it has highlighted the fact that Israel has no long-term strategy for living side-by-side with its Palestinian neighbours.
