On Tuesday, Israel executed airstrikes in Gaza that resulted in over 410 deaths and hundreds of injuries, marking a significant escalation of violence since the January ceasefire. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is urging Hamas to release more hostages, leading to a tense standoff regarding peace negotiations. Meanwhile, a federal judge is questioning the legality of recent deportations carried out by the U.S. government, which raised concerns about adherence to judicial orders amid executive actions. This reflects broader tensions between government branches and raises questions about legal processes in deportations.
The strikes are the most intense violence since a ceasefire began in January between Israel and Hamas.
Hamas responded by saying it held up its end of the first phase and wanted to start second phase talks.
The White House says the written order was issued after the flights took off.
The controversy lies over whether the U.S. government defied a legal court order, which would be a potential breakdown between the executive and judicial branches.
