Israel has launched a deadly attack on Gaza, breaking the ceasefire, with over 400 Palestinians killed and hundreds more injured. Many remain trapped under collapsed buildings. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that the assault is just beginning and will continue until their objectives are met.
According to Anadolu news agency, the attack began early Tuesday during Suhoor in Ramadan, with Israeli forces conducting heavy airstrikes. This is the deadliest attack since the ceasefire started on January 19. Images from the aftermath show that most victims are civilians, including women and children.
In a televised speech, Netanyahu justified the renewed assault, stating that Israel extended the ceasefire and engaged in negotiations, but Hamas rejected all proposals. Reports indicate that a previous deal included a 50-day ceasefire, prisoner exchanges, and humanitarian aid, but Netanyahu insisted that the attack resumed because Hamas failed to release Israeli hostages.
The attack has sparked massive protests worldwide, including in Israel, where thousands gathered in Tel Aviv against the government. Demonstrations also took place in New York’s Times Square, Amman, and Paris, condemning the violence and showing solidarity with Gaza.
