Israel launched a large-scale assault on Gaza early Tuesday, effectively ending a fragile ceasefire that had been in place since January 19.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The renewed strikes, which Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described as a response to Hamas\u2019s refusal to release captives, killed more than 300 Palestinians, including women and children, according to Gaza\u2019s Government Media Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Israeli warplanes and drones struck multiple locations across the besieged enclave, targeting residential buildings, makeshift shelters, and infrastructure. The military said it was conducting \u201cextensive strikes on terror targets\u201d linked to Hamas and warned that the operation would continue with \u201cincreasing military strength.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
