Israel escalates airstrikes after soldier's death, yet supports ceasefire.

Israel has intensified its military response following the death of an Israeli soldier, launching airstrikes across Gaza that reportedly killed over 100 people, including women and children. Despite the escalation, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reaffirmed the country’s commitment to a U.S.-backed ceasefire, emphasizing the need to disarm Hamas while addressing accusations of civilian casualties and misinformation. The recent clashes underscore the fragile nature of the truce brokered by former President Trump, with key issues surrounding Hamas’s disarmament and governance of Gaza remaining unresolved. This situation highlights the complexities of achieving lasting peace in the region amidst ongoing violence and humanitarian concerns, raising fears among displaced Palestinians about the potential collapse of the ceasefire.
