Three years after the October 7 attacks, Hamas remains an active presence in Gaza despite significant weakening. According to France 24, Israel declared the elimination of Hamas a war objective following these attacks, but the group still retains fighters and control over part of the Gaza Strip.
This situation highlights the complexity of the conflict and the difficulty for Israel to completely eradicate Hamas, which continues to influence the local dynamics. The short-term future of Hamas in Gaza remains uncertain, as its power has been reduced but not eliminated.
