Israel Continues Strikes in Gaza Amid Truce Violations

Despite a two-month ceasefire, Israeli military strikes in Gaza persist, claiming at least nine lives in recent attacks.


Recent reports indicate that Israeli forces have continued military operations in Gaza, leading to significant casualties despite a tenuous ceasefire with Hamas.

Israeli forces conducted airstrikes in Gaza on Saturday, resulting in at least nine Palestinian deaths, as reported by the Gaza health ministry. The strikes have been ongoing, despite a truce that took effect in mid-January, which both sides had agreed upon. Since the truce began, Israel has maintained that its military actions are necessary for self-defense against threats from Hamas militants, who they claim have initiated aggressive actions, including deploying explosives and drones near Israeli troop positions.

Hamas has sharply criticized Israel's actions, asserting that these attacks constitute clear violations of the ceasefire and have resulted in the deaths of over 150 individuals, with many being civilians. Ismail Thawabteh, director-general of the Hamas media office, stated that the fatalities from the recent Israeli strikes were not combatants but were instead working for a charitable organization, a claim that has not been independently verified.

The Israeli military defended its recent operations, asserting that they targeted militants specifically engaged in actions that endangered Israeli personnel. However, the lack of independent verification of the identity and affiliations of the deceased has raised questions about the narratives presented by both parties. The situation remains fraught, with the potential for escalation continuing as each side blames the other for breaches of the ceasefire agreement.
