Israel Launches Heavy Strikes On Gaza City
US Insists Ceasefire Will Hold
(ZH) Update: Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz has alleged Hamas fighters attacked IDF troops despite an ongoing ceasefire. “Hamas will pay a heavy price for attacking soldiers in Gaza and for violating the agreement to return the bodies of the hostages,” Katz said as heavy bombardments in the Strip have been reported. He declared Hamas’ actions are “crossing of a bright red line, to which the [military] will respond with great force.”
Gaza’s civil defense agency has confirmed several airstrikes in a statement to Al Jazeera. Hamas is denying the accusations, in a statement saying “Israel must realize we are committed to the agreement, and they must stop falsely accusing us of violating it.” This as Al Jazeera writes, “For the past 30 minutes, there has been major activity in the air over Gaza’s skies, with drones hovering above.” A series of airstrikes have hit Gaza City in particular.
In response to these developments the US is insisting it believes the ceasefire will hold. “Despite the clashes today, the ceasefire agreement in Gaza will continue,” Vice President J.D. Vance said Tuesday afternoon.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
