US EditionIsraeli air strikes kill at least 27 in Gaza as fragile ceasefire frays
At least 33 Palestinians, including 12 children, were killed in Israeli strikes violating a ceasefire that has left over 300 Palestinians dead since October, health officials said.
- On Wednesday, Israeli air strikes killed 27 people in Gaza, with 14 in Gaza City and 13 in Khan Yunis, as Israel and Hamas accused each other of violating the ceasefire.
- The Israeli military said it launched strikes after militants fired toward troops, Hamas denied responsibility and called it a 'dangerous escalation', while the ceasefire that began on October 10 has faced repeated violations.
- Wider casualty data show Gaza's Health Ministry reports 280 killed and 672 wounded since Oct. 11, with nearly 70,000 killed and over 170,000 injured since October 2023.
- The strikes coincided with Israeli attacks targeting Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, raising tensions two days after the UN Security Council endorsed a US-drafted resolution for the ceasefire.
- Negotiations for the second stage remain unresolved and the truce included the return of the last 48 hostages, but three hostages' bodies remain in Gaza amid media restrictions in Gaza.
