Israel carried out new airstrikes in Gaza, leading to the deaths of at least 25 Palestinians, according to local officials. The attacks took place in Gaza City and Khan Younis and came despite ongoing truces meant to reduce fighting. This latest incident is being widely described as part of continued Israel Gaza ceasefire violations, which have increased tension across the region.
Reports from international news agencies say that the Israeli military launched these airstrikes in response to what it claimed was Hamas gunfire. Gaza Civil Defence teams confirmed that at least 25 Palestinians were killed in the attacks. Rescue workers stated that the strikes hit civilian areas, causing severe damage to homes and infrastructure.
