The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas collapses as Israeli strikes kill over 400 Palestinians, citing stalled hostage negotiations.

  • Israel launched its heaviest airstrikes on Gaza since January, killing more than 400 Palestinians, including women and children, according to local health officials.
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated the strikes were a response to Hamas's refusal to release remaining hostages and rejection of mediation proposals.
  • The renewed fighting threatens to exacerbate Gaza's humanitarian crisis, with aid cut off and widespread destruction reported.
  • Hamas accused Israel of violating the ceasefire agreement and jeopardizing the safety of hostages still held in Gaza.
  • The United States, briefed in advance, expressed support for Israel’s actions, as Netanyahu signaled an open-ended military operation.
