B Correct answer
Explanation

‘Giza’s horror continues’ in 1 connects with ‘ceasefire attempts do not last long’ in R. The pronoun ‘his’ in P connects directly with the noun ‘PM Benjamin Netanyahu’ in Q. Thus, P follows Q. ‘Violent subjugation of civilian population’ in P connects with ‘such state sponsored campaigns’ in S. 6 concludes the passage by summing up the situation.
