Gaza Ceasefire Strains: Repercussions of Renewed Strikes

The Israeli military resumed enforcing a ceasefire in Gaza amid renewed airstrikes and mutual accusations of violations. The strikes followed Palestinian militants' attack, killing an Israeli soldier. Both sides blame each other for breaking the truce, with the U.S. President affirming the ceasefire remains intact.

The Israeli military has announced the continuation of enforcing the ceasefire agreement in Gaza, despite renewed tensions following a series of airstrikes that resulted in the death of 104 people, according to local health officials. Both Israel and Hamas have been trading accusations over who breached the fragile ceasefire.

On Tuesday night, Israel launched airstrikes after a Palestinian militant attack killed an Israeli soldier, presenting a fresh challenge to the truce. The military reiterated its commitment to the ceasefire while promising strong reactions to any infractions. President Trump has stated that the U.S.-backed ceasefire is not at risk, even as hostilities persist.

Reports from Gaza health authorities indicate increasing casualties, including fatalities from targeted strikes in various locations. Neither side claims responsibility for igniting the current hostilities, while both are under international scrutiny to adhere to the ceasefire accord aimed at stabilizing the situation in the region.
