The Israel Defense Forces say they are striking Hamas targets throughout the Gaza Strip with attacks reported in multiple locations including Gaza City and Khan Younis.
More than 300 Palestinians were killed in overnight Israeli strikes in Gaza, with hundreds of others injured, Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry.
It was the biggest series of strikes on Gaza since a ceasefire and hostage-prisoner exchange agreement between Israel and Hamas took effect on Jan. 19, ending two months of relative calm. Mahmoud Abu Wafah, the highest-ranking Hamas security official in Gaza, was reportedly among those killed.The White House was consulted by Israel before it launched its strikes on Gaza, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said yesterday on Fox News.“As President Trump has made it clear — Hamas, the Houthis, Iran, all those who seek to terrorize not just Israel, but also the United States of America, will see a price to pay. All hell will break loose,” Leavitt said.
