Israel Resumes Gaza Strikes After Ceasefire Collapses

Airstrikes kill at least 200 as Israel intensifies military operations following stalled hostage negotiations with Hamas.

Israel launched its heaviest airstrikes on Gaza since January, targeting Hamas sites after ceasefire talks failed to progress.
The strikes, ordered by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, were prompted by Hamas's refusal to release remaining hostages and rejection of mediation proposals.
Palestinian health officials reported over 200 deaths, including women and children, as hospitals face overwhelming casualties and limited resources.
The White House confirmed it was consulted before the strikes and expressed support for Israel's actions, blaming Hamas for the renewed hostilities.
The collapse of the ceasefire has deepened Gaza's humanitarian crisis and raised concerns about the safety of hostages and the potential for further regional instability.
