Intense Bombardment in Gaza City
Israeli forces ramped up their military operations in eastern Gaza City overnight, according to local health authorities. Aerial and tank fire demolished several houses, resulting in the tragic loss of at least 11 lives. The escalation marks one of the most significant surges in violence in recent weeks, with families caught in the crossfire and infrastructure sustaining severe damage.
Hamas Open to Ceasefire Talks
At the same time, Hamas communicated its willingness to resume ceasefire negotiations through mediators in Egypt. This statement comes as Egypt hosts critical discussions to de-escalate the ongoing conflict. Analysts believe these talks could pave the way for a potential truce, though both sides remain cautious.
The recent events underscore the urgent need for a peaceful resolution in Gaza. Civilians continue to bear the brunt of the conflict, and international observers hope that mediation efforts in Egypt will lead to meaningful progress.
