The Israeli regime has continued its heavy attacks in the north and south of Gaza on the 59th day of the war and the third day of the beginning of the clashes after the expiration of the seven-day ceasefire. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks in the last 24 hours alone.
The Israeli army announced on Sunday night that it has expanded its military operations throughout Gaza.
Before the announcement of the Israeli army, regime fighters targeted Jabalia camp in the north. Dozens of people were martyred in these attacks.
Reports indicate that 300 people were sheltering in the vicinity of the area that was attacked in a camp area that has been repeatedly bombed by Israel over the past month.
Heavy bombings were also reported in the city of Khan Yunis in the south of the Gaza Strip. On Sunday night, reports of a clash between Hamas fighters and the Zionist regime soldiers were published one mile away from this city.
After the Zionist army ordered the evacuation of the northern Gaza area, many of the 2.3 inhabitants of this strip have left for the south.
Hopes for another ceasefire have dwindled as fighting has resumed, after the previous one expired on Friday. In that week-long ceasefire, Israel and Hamas exchanged prisoners.
The Israeli regime claimed that Khalaf’s promise to Hamas was the reason for not renewing the ceasefire. However, the Palestinian resistance movement emphasized that Tel Aviv rejected all proposals for a ceasefire.
