Israel has launched a wave of air strikes through the Gaza Strip in its heaviest assault from the ceasefire in January.
At least 342 Palestinians were killed while Israel launched a massive aggression against Gaza, breaking a fragile ceasefire of two months with Hamas.
The surprise attack broke a period of relative calm during the Ramadan Sacred Muslim month and raised the chances of a complete return to combat in a 17 -month war which caused general destruction through Gaza and killed more than 48,000 Palestinians.
Here is what all parties say Israeli attacks:
Hamas
Hamas has called people around the world to “raise their voice in rejection of the resumption of the Zionist war of extermination against our people in the Gaza Strip”. The group also said that it held Israel “entirely responsible for the violation and overthrow of the agreement”.
“Netanyahu and his Nazi government resume their aggression and their genocidal war against defenseless civilians in the Gaza Strip,” he said in a statement. “We occupy the criminal occupation of Netanyahu and Nazi entirely responsible for the repercussions of the treacherous assault in Gaza, and on defenseless civilians and our besieged Palestinian people, which is subject to a brutal war and a systematic starting policy.
“Netanyahu and her extremist government decide to overthrow the ceasefire agreement, exposing prisoners to Gaza to an unknown spell.”
Palestinian Islamic jihad
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) says that Israel continues its “war of extermination” on Gaza after having “deliberately sabotaged all the efforts to reach a cease-fire”, according to a press release shared by the Israeli media Haaretz.
Pij said that Netanyahu’s renewed attack and its “bloodthirsty Nazi government” will not give Israel “superiority over resistance, on the ground or in negotiations”.
“We affirm that what Netanyahu and his barbaric army failed to achieve in 15 months of crimes and bloodshed, they will not succeed in achieving again, thanks to the firmness of our oppressed and the courage of our Mujahideen in the fields of … Resistance.”
Israel
Israeli officials said the last assault on Gaza would be open and could develop.
“Israel will now act against Hamas with increasing military force,” said the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
He said Hamas “has repeatedly refused to release our hostages and rejected all the offers she received from the American presidential envoy Steve Witkoff, and mediators.”
“Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz asked the FDI to take good measures against Hamas’ terrorist organization in the Gaza Strip,” a statement said. “The FDI is, at present, attacker of the targets of the terrorist organization of Hamas throughout the Gaza Strip in order to achieve the objectives of the war, because they were determined by the political level, including the release of all our hostages, alive and deceased.
“Israel will now act from Hamas now with increasing military force.”
In a statement, the government’s media office in Gaza said that the last attack on Israel constituted “a blatant violation of all international and humanitarian conventions, the Israeli occupation continues its massacres within the framework of the genocide in progress against our Palestinian people, contemptuous the agreement with the fire of sale”.
He added that “most of these martyrs and disappeared are women, children and the elderly, victims of genocide crimes targeting humanity, the land and the Palestinian history”.
“These brutal massacres committed by the Israeli occupation army reaffirm that this occupation only understands the language of murder, destruction and genocide.”
