Israel Resumes Assault on Gaza, Breaking Ceasefire, Killing 400

Israel resumed airstrikes on Gaza, breaking a two-month ceasefire and resulting in the deaths of at least 400 Palestinians, including many women and children. The attacks followed stalled negotiations over a proposed plan brokered by the U.S. that involved hostages and troop withdrawals. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, backed by Donald Trump, appears committed to continuing the conflict, with some analysts suggesting a goal of forcibly transferring two million Palestinians out of Gaza. This escalation comes amidst broader military actions by Israel in Syria and the West Bank, raising concerns about regional stability. Critics of both Netanyahu and Trump argue that their actions demonstrate a lack of commitment to peace, highlighting a pattern of renegotiating agreements while blaming Palestinian leaders for failed diplomacy. The situation remains dire for the civilian population in Gaza, who have already endured significant suffering from ongoing military operations and blockades.
