Israel Resumes Gaza Airstrikes, Killing Over 400 as Ceasefire Breaks Down

Israeli military launches its heaviest assault since January, citing stalled negotiations with Hamas over hostages and troop withdrawal.

  • Israeli airstrikes across Gaza have killed more than 400 people, including women and children, according to local health officials.
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the strikes, citing Hamas' refusal to release hostages and rejection of ceasefire proposals.
  • The January ceasefire agreement, intended as a three-phase plan, collapsed after disagreements over troop withdrawal and prisoner exchanges.
  • Gaza faces a deepening humanitarian crisis, with essential supplies cut off for two weeks and 90% of its population displaced.
  • The renewed fighting raises fears of a full resumption of the 17-month war, which has caused tens of thousands of deaths and widespread destruction.
