Israeli Airstrikes Shatter Gaza Ceasefire, Over 100 Killed in Single Day

While the U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas offered a brief hope for calm, repeated Israeli violations have left Palestinians living in constant fear of renewed violence. The fragile truce, agreed earlier this month under President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan, is now being tested by relentless airstrikes that have devastated southern Gaza.

On Wednesday alone, more than 100 Palestinians — mostly women and children — were killed and 253 others injured in Israeli airstrikes on Khan Younis, marking the deadliest breach of the ceasefire to date. Early Thursday, the Israeli military launched 10 additional strikes in the same area, despite claiming it had “resumed” the ceasefire after a wave of attacks allegedly in retaliation for the death of an Israeli soldier — a claim Hamas denies.

According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, at least 211 Palestinians have been killed and 597 wounded since the ceasefire began. “While the ceasefire might technically exist, the sounds of explosions, gunfire, and drones constantly remind us how fragile it is,” reported Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud from Gaza City.

The October 10 ceasefire agreement aimed to release Israeli captives in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and begin Gaza’s reconstruction under a new governing structure without Hamas. However, the ongoing attacks have derailed these plans and reignited despair among Palestinians.

Local residents describe the situation as unbearable. “We started to rebuild our lives, but the truce was breached. We hadn’t even caught our breath when the second breach happened,” said Gaza resident Mazen Shaheen. “Where are the international guarantees that were promised?” he asked, reflecting the growing frustration toward the global community’s silence.

The psychological toll on Gaza’s population is immense. Over 68,500 people have been killed and more than 170,000 injured since Israel’s war on Gaza began in October 2023. “We just want to live in safety. We want full commitment to the truce, not another cycle of war and fear,” said Gaza City resident Suha Awad.

Despite the devastation, Palestinians remain resolute in their call for a complete and lasting ceasefire — one that truly ends the suffering and allows them to rebuild their shattered lives.
