The fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hamas has been shattered by a series of intense Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has intensified military operations, citing the release of hostages as a primary objective. The renewed violence follows the expiration of the ceasefire agreement and unsuccessful negotiations in Doha.
Reports indicate that at least 330 Palestinians have been killed, with casualties including women and children. The airstrikes, described as targeting Hamas-related terror sites, have sparked international condemnation and raised concerns over the growing humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Hamas accuses Israel of unilateral action to end the truce, while the international community faces mounting pressure to address the conflict. The strikes have targeted various areas, including Deir Al-Balah, Khan Younis, and Rafah, leading to significant destruction and civilian suffering.
Despite calls for peace, the Israeli government remains firm on its stance, with Defense Minister Israel Katz supporting continued military action until hostages are released. The situation has drawn responses from global powers, with some countries condemning the Israeli actions and urging restraint to prevent further escalation.
