"Israel killed at least 104 Palestinians in a barrage of airstrikes on Gaza overnight on Wednesday, in a major violation of the ceasefire agreement that Israel has said is back on after the strikes. At least 46 children were among those killed by the strikes, which also wounded 253 Palestinians, Gaza's Ministry of Health said. Gaza's Civil Defense teams were forced to use small tools and their hands in attempts to dig through the rubble for survivors and bodies."
"Israel and the U.S. said that the ceasefire is back on after the strikes. "As I understand it, they took out an Israeli soldier," U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters on Tuesday. "So the Israelis hit back and they should hit back." He added, however, that "nothing is going to jeopardize" the ceasefire, without acknowledging that such a display of force destabilizes the agreement."
