The Israeli military operations in Gaza, specifically Operation Cast Lead (2008-2009) and Operation Protective Edge (2014), were significant escalations in the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Operation Cast Lead aimed to stop Hamas's rocket fire into Israel and weaken its military capabilities, resulting in a 22-day conflict with substantial casualties and destruction. Operation Protective Edge, lasting 50 days, had similar goals, leading to a heavy humanitarian toll and extensive damage in Gaza. Both operations drew international attention and criticism over the humanitarian impact and the use of force.
