Israel has reinstated its ceasefire in Gaza following a devastating series of air strikes that local health officials say killed at least 91 people, including 30 children. The move comes after a tense 24-hour escalation that left families scrambling for safety and global observers on edge. 🚨
Israeli military officials stated the strikes targeted 'dozens of militant sites' and 30 armed group commanders, claiming it was a response to Hamas' alleged violations of prior peace agreements. However, Hamas denied responsibility for recent clashes, calling Israel's actions 'disproportionate.' 🔥
The violence erupted after Israel accused Hamas of causing a fire that killed a soldier in Rafah and withholding hostages' bodies—a claim Hamas disputes. With over 90% of Gaza's 2.3 million residents already displaced, this latest flare-up has renewed concerns about humanitarian access to the region. 🏘️
As the dust settles, one question lingers: Can this fragile ceasefire hold? 🌍 Analysts warn that without sustained international mediation, the cycle of retaliation risks spiraling further. Stay tuned for updates.
