Israel's deadly Gaza strikes cast doubt on ceasefire progress days after Kushner visit
At least 17 people were killed as Israeli strikes hit Hamas targets and civilians, deepening doubts over U.S.-backed ceasefire talks, officials said.
- On Tuesday and Wednesday, Israeli strikes killed at least 17 Palestinians in Gaza, casting doubt on U.S. efforts to stabilize the tenuous ceasefire that has significantly diminished fighting since October.
- Earlier on Monday, U.S. negotiator Jared Kushner met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, requesting the Israeli leader draw down military operations in the Gaza Strip to support ongoing ceasefire negotiations.
- Wednesday strikes in the Nuseirat refugee camp and Tuffah area killed Hamas commanders, while a strike on a police station killed eight officers and a 13-year-old girl, the Hamas-run Interior Ministry said.
- Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem criticized the Board of Peace, the body President Donald Trump established to oversee the ceasefire, claiming it provides a "cover" for Israel to escalate attacks instead of pressuring adherence.
- Major sticking points remain regarding the conditions of Hamas' disarmament and Israel's withdrawal, with both sides rejecting the other's terms for ending the nearly three-year war that has killed more than 73,400 Palestinians.
