Israeli air strikes hit Gaza despite Trump’s ‘stop bombing’ demand

Israel reportedly launched airstrikes and artillery shelling on Gaza City in response to Hamas’s partial acceptance of a ceasefire agreement, according to Gaza’s civil defense agency.

Despite President Trump’s request to stop the bombing, the Israeli army carried out dozens of air strikes and artillery shelling on Gaza City and other areas in the Strip, according to civil defense spokesman Mahmoud Basal, according to AFP.

According to Basal, who works for a rescue organization, 20 homes were destroyed in the overnight attacks.

A home in the city’s Tuffah neighborhood was struck by al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City, which is also known as the Baptist Hospital, and it has reported four fatalities and several injuries.

Officials at Khan Younis’ Nasser Hospital confirmed that a drone struck a tent in a displacement camp, killing two children and injuring eight people.

A ceasefire, the release of captives within 72 hours, Hamas dearmament, and a gradual Israeli withdrawal from Gaza are included in the proposal for Gaza, which was unveiled by Trump this week and received the support of Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu.
