This morning, Israel launched airstrikes into Gaza, after Hamas fighters attacked troops in Rafah.
An IDF spokesperson said Hamas had carried out "multiple attacks against Israeli forces beyond the yellow line", the area of Gaza that Israel retreated to when the ceasefire commenced this week.
In a statement, Hamas official Izzat al-Rishq said the group “remains committed to the ceasefire agreement”, accusing Israel of “violating the deal and fabricating pretexts to justify its crimes".
The airstrikes came mere hours after the US said it had "credible evidence" that the terrorist group was planning an attack on Gazan civilians and warned: "Should Hamas proceed with this attack, measures will be taken to protect the people of Gaza and preserve the integrity of the ceasefire."
US President Donald Trump, earlier this week, warned: "If Hamas continues to kill people in Gaza, which was not the deal, we will have no choice but to go in and kill them."
The US's evidence of the imminent attack was shared with guarantors of the peace deal, including Egypt, Qatar and Turkey - all of which have joined the US and Israel in demanding the group stick to the agreed upon terms of the ceasefire.
