A:  The article was about Israel and Hamas conflict. The conflict has severely damaged civilians killing thousands and making most of the population homeless. Very few humanitarian vehicles or help has arrived for the injured cilivians too. 

B:  I dont know very much I knew about the conflict and how much damage it was causing but didn't know much details. The article has shed some more light and I know more about the causality count and both sides of the war and how horrible it is. 

C: According  to the article  the civilians living in Gaza were hit with tons of explosives killing many and injuring more. Around 50 Palestinians were killed with 150 wounded and with little healthcare available the situation is not good. 
D:  I think they should try to evacuate cilivan areas around the war if possible. Another thing is to not fight  near populated areas as that will lead to more deaths  to people not involved in the war.
E :  I do not think the US should do anything unless the situation worsens . Trying to peacfully stop the war would be great but I doubt  the US could do that. Sending in our own troops and men into a conflict to kill more people and die does not seem like the best situation for us.
F: This war seems just as bad as the war in Ukraine. Although there doesnt seem to be as clear as a side to support as both sides have very cleary done wrongs. I also cannot see this war ending soon or peacfully like Ukraine.
