GAZA/JERUSALEM, Oct 24 (Reuters) - More than 700 Palestinians were killed in overnight Israeli air strikes, Gaza’s health ministry said on Tuesday, the highest 24-hour death toll since Israel began a bombing campaign to crush Hamas militants who stunned the country with a deadly Oct. 7 attack.

Israel said it had killed dozens of Hamas fighters in the overnight strikes on the besieged enclave but said its war to destroy the Islamist group would take time.

As aid agencies warned that a humanitarian catastrophe was unfolding in Gaza, French President Emmanuel Macron flew to Israel to offer it support.

    I’m not sure this is correct in respect to Gaza.

    The requirements for citizenship under pre-hamas in Gaza is your father must be an Palestinian Arab. There is no naturalization process that allows you to bypass this requirement. That is the definition of an ethnostate.

    While I can’t find any record on if Hamas changed the law, I highly doubt they did considering their political stance.

      Citizenship requires that you are a country. Israel has taken that away from Palestinians decades ago.

        I was pointing out that this statement you made:
        Gaza has a majortiy of Muslims but never rejected “citizenship” to Jews or Christians.

        Is very, very wrong.
