Israel Launches Air Strikes on Gaza
On October 29, 2025, Israel launched a series of air strikes on Gaza, intensifying the already tense situation in the region. This sudden military action raised immediate global concerns, especially since a truce was in place. Many questioned the intentions behind the attack and the quick decision to resume the ceasefire shortly after.
International Reactions and the Role of the US
Former US President Donald Trump has openly supported Israel during this conflict. His administration backed Israel through several violations of the ceasefire agreement. Despite these breaches, the truce had not moved into its crucial second phase, leaving the region in a fragile state.
The situation remains highly volatile, with the international community closely watching Israel’s next moves. The quick resumption of the truce has led to speculation about behind-the-scenes negotiations and the potential for further escalations.
