Fragile Ceasefire Tested as Tensions Rise between Israel and Hamas

In a critical shift in the ongoing conflict, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has instructed the army to execute intensive strikes in Gaza after recent hostilities. His decision follows reports of a severe breach by Hamas, which has stalled the return of a hostage body amidst the shaky US-mediated ceasefire.

Reports and eyewitness accounts have confirmed the presence of Israeli tank fire and multiple explosions across the region, including in Gaza City and Deir al-Balah. These developments unfolded after Israeli forces were allegedly attacked in southern Gaza, prompting urgent military responses from Israel.

The ceasefire, effective since October 10, has encountered multiple strains as trust between the warring sides erodes. Both Israel and Hamas accuse each other of violating the pact, complicating ongoing international efforts to uphold peace. The return of hostages’ remains is one poignant issue yet to be resolved under the fragile ceasefire conditions.
