Bethlehem / PNN/ 

The Israeli military said Sunday it had resumed enforcement of the Gaza ceasefire, hours after launching around 100 airstrikes across the territory that killed at least 33 people, according to Gaza’s civil defence agency.

Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instructed the occupation army to take "decisive action" against what he described as "armed targets" in Gaza.

The strikes marked a significant escalation in the nine-day-old truce, which took effect on 10 October and was brokered by Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey based on a US proposal from President Donald Trump. The deal included provisions for captive and prisoner exchanges and proposed a broader roadmap for Gaza's recovery.

Palestinian officials condemned the strikes as a grave breach of the ceasefire, warning that Israel had been violating the agreement "since day one."

The Israeli army, meanwhile, reported its first fatalities since the truce began, saying Major Yaniv Kula, 26, and Staff Sergeant Itay Yavetz, 21, were killed during operations in southern Gaza.

Earlier on Sunday, Israeli officials told Axios that humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza would resume on Monday, reversing a previous decision to suspend aid and close border crossings. The change reportedly followed pressure from the Trump administration.

Despite the renewed violence and mounting Israeli violations, a senior Israeli security source told Channel 12: "There is no need to worry about the agreement," adding that Israel does not seek the collapse of the truce.

Hamas, in turn, reaffirmed its commitment to the ceasefire and condemned Israel for "violating the agreement and fabricating pretexts to justify its crimes."

Meanwhile, a Hamas delegation led by senior negotiator Khalil al-Hayya arrived in Cairo to follow up on the ceasefire's implementation with mediators and Palestinian factions.
