The world woke up to the shocking news that Israel had resumed his genocidal war against Gaza.
Abundant questions: how many people have been injured? Why does it happen? How did we get here?
Here is what we know:
What’s going on in Gaza?
Israel killed more than 400 people in night attacks on Tuesday, launching air raids while people were sleeping in the early hours of the morning.
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu published a statement announcing the resumption of the War of Israel against Gaza.
Where did the attacks take place?
According to reports, the Israeli raids have targeted the governors of the North, Center and South.
Tel Aviv Tribune Arabic reported that Israeli tanks have bombed the city of Abasan in Khan Younis.
Tareq Abou Azzoum of Tel Aviv Tribune said: “Most of the air strikes have been in highly built neighborhoods, fortune schools and residential buildings where people refer.”
What do we know about victims?
At least 404 people were reported by Israel in just a few hours.
Images that came out of the ground showed children among the victims. There are an unknown number of people still under the rubble.
The government’s media office said: “Most of these martyrs and missing people are women, children and the elderly”, adding that in some cases “whole families” had been killed.
What reason did Israel have given for having broken the ceasefire?
Israel says he is doing this to force Hamas to release the captives held in Gaza.
He also claims that he knows that Hamas rearmed and planned a new attack.
However, “Israel himself had decided to withdraw from the negotiations of phase two of this agreement which would finally see the end of the war and the release of the 59 Israeli captives still detained in Gaza,” said Hamdah Salhut of Tel Aviv Tribune.
Israel had tried to avoid switching to the second phase of the ceasefire, with the support of the United States, while Hamas argued that the agreement should continue phase two, as initially agreed.
What does Hamas say?
Hamas has published a statement on its telegram accusing Israel of having violated the ceasefire and of continuing its genocide.
He described the attacks on “blatant violation of all international and humanitarian conventions” and said that the perilous humanitarian situation and the lack of fuel on the ground meant that many wounded died because they were unable to reach hospitals.
What was the American answer?
The White House said that Israel had consulted the United States before resuming the attacks.
What do we know about captives?
About 59 Israeli captives remain in Gaza, less than half of which are still alive, according to the Israeli government.
Hamas has accused Israel of having violated the ceasefire and risking the life of captives.
The Family Family Forum in Israel said that “their greatest fear has become reality” and blamed their government for abandoning captives.
“We are shocked, angry and frightened by the deliberate disruption of the process to bring our loved ones back to the terrible captivity of Hamas,” said the hostage forum and families missing in a press release.
Forum of Hostage Families: “The greatest fear of families, hostages and citizens of Israel has become reality. The Israeli government has chosen to give up hostages. We are shocked, angry and frightened by the deliberate disruption of the process to return our beloved …

What led to this escalation?
We told you about Israeli claims and how negotiations really went.
In retrospect, Israel may never intend to leave Gaza or stop war.
When the two parties accepted a cease-fire, Israel refused to say in writing that he would not resume hostilities after the first phase.
Hamas has always accepted the conditions after having received verbal guarantees from the mediators – Egypt, Qatar and the United States – that Israel will not restart its genocidal war against the Palestinians.
The United States, which provides most weapons from Israel and provide it with unwavering support, is the only country with a real lever effect against Israel, and it is clear that it has once again renamed its promise to protect Palestinian life against illegal Israeli violence – probably criminal.
But Israel said it was doing this only for captives, right?
It is very, very difficult to believe.
The War of Israel in Gaza is also part of a broader conflict that he led in the region, saying that it is necessary for its security.
He bombed southern Lebanon about since a ceasefire was signed between her and the Lebanese government. On March 16, he killed four people in two villages.
The same night, Israel killed two people in the Syrian city of Deraa, saying that it was aimed at the remains of the regime of the Syrian president who was in the past Bashar al-Assad, although it is not clear why it concerns them.
In addition, Israel continues its violent raid campaign on the occupied West Bank refugee camps, claiming to try to eliminate Palestinian fighters.
However, experts previously declared to Tel Aviv Tribune that armed groups in the Palestinian refugee camps did not threaten Israel, having trained in 2021 to respond mainly to the violent and increasingly violent raids of Israel, which violated international law.
