Renewed violence has erupted in Gaza as Israeli forces resumed airstrikes, resulting in the deaths of more than 44 Palestinians. The escalation follows the reported killing of two Israeli soldiers in Rafah, prompting strong condemnation from Palestinian Islamic Jihad, which accuses Israel of committing organized crimes. The fragile ceasefire between the parties has been further strained, with both Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad vowing to respond to the latest attacks. Disputes over the handling of hostage bodies continue to fuel tensions, as calls for restraint and accountability grow louder amid the ongoing conflict.
