Ceasefire between Israel and Hamas breached with deadly strikes in Gaza

The nine-day ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza was reportedly breached on Sunday, with both sides accusing each other of initiating hostilities.

Israel stated that it conducted air strikes in response to alleged attacks by Hamas militants, which resulted in the deaths of two Israeli soldiers in Rafah.

Hamas denied breaching the truce and accused Israel of creating pretexts to resume its own offensive.

Gaza's civil defense agency and four hospitals confirmed that at least 45 people were killed across the territory in Israeli strikes.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered strong action against Hamas targets, and Defense Minister Israel Katz warned Hamas of severe repercussions for any further breaches.
