Escalating Violence in Gaza Despite Ceasefire Announcement

Despite the recent announcement of a ceasefire, Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have continued unabated, resulting in significant casualties. Reports indicate that at least 86 Palestinians have been killed since the ceasefire was declared, with some sources suggesting the death toll could exceed 46,700 overall due to ongoing attacks. Israeli officials continue to deliberate on the truce, with Prime Minister Netanyahu stating that the deal is not yet finalized. Humanitarian groups are urging for immediate access to assist those affected, particularly as the violence has taken a severe psychological toll on children in the region. The situation remains tense as hopes for a long-term ceasefire are overshadowed by relentless military operations.
