Hundreds killed as Israel launches air strikes across Gaza
Briefly

Israel's recent bombardment of Gaza has broken the January ceasefire, resulting in at least 320 deaths, including many women and children. This escalation follows a period of relative calm during Ramadan and heightens fears of a renewed conflict. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu cited stalled negotiations for extending the ceasefire and securing the release of captives as reasons for the attacks. Hamas decried the bombardment as a breach of the ceasefire, jeopardizing the captives' safety. The White House has expressed support for Israel, marking a continuing international involvement in the ongoing crisis.
