Israeli airstrikes targeted Gaza after Israel accused Hamas of violating a ceasefire agreement brokered by the United States. Local health authorities reported at least 26 fatalities across the territory as a result of the strikes. The escalation followed claims by Israel that Hamas attacked Israeli forces and mishandled the return of hostage remains, prompting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to order renewed military action. Hamas initially agreed to hand over a hostage's body but later postponed the transfer, citing Israeli violations of the ceasefire. The situation has intensified disputes over the terms of the ceasefire, with both sides trading accusations of breaches since the agreement was reached.

Israel strikes Gaza after accusing Hamas of violating ceasefire

Palestinian Red Crescent workers were seen trying to rescue people trapped under rubble after an Israeli strike in Gaza City, in video obtained by Reuters on Tuesday. The strikes across Gaza, which witnesses say carried on into early Wednesday, are the latest test of an almost three-week-old ceasefire deal brokered by U.S. President Donald Trump. Local health authorities said overnight that the attacks killed at least 26 people across the Palestinian territory. The strikes followed accusations from Israel's military that Hamas had violated the ceasefire by attacking Israeli forces in the area. It also came after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered powerful attacks on the militants. Earlier he accused Hamas of violating the ceasefire by turning over remains that did not belong to missing Israeli hostages. He said that remains handed over the previous day belonged to Ofir Zafati, an Israeli killed during Hamas' October 7 attack, whose body was partially recovered by Israeli forces during the war. In response, Hamas initially said it would hand over the body of a missing hostage found in a tunnel in Gaza. However, Hamas' armed wing, the al-Qassam Brigades, later said it would postpone the handover, citing what it said were Israel's violations of the ceasefire. In a hospital in Gaza City, Palestinian Tayer al-Banna was among those injured in Tuesday's strikes. TAYER AL-BANNA, Palestinian Resident of Gaza City, Israel We were reading the news about Netanyahu's threats and the attacks on Gaza, and then the attack happened right at our house. The roof fell on us. Our neighbors came and pulled us from under the rubble, me, my wife, my daughters, my sons and my wife's father. The search for hostage bodies stepped up over the past few days as heavy machinery arrived from Egypt. The issue has become one of the main sticking points in the ceasefire. Diggers were working in Khan Yunis on Tuesday with Hamas fighters around them. The U.S.-backed ceasefire agreement earlier this month halted two years of war triggered by the deadly Hamas-led attacks on Israel on October 7, 2023, but since then both sides have accused each other of violations.
