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."
