Israel Strikes Rafah Hours After Hamas Agrees To A Ceasefire Proposal- Deets Inside!

Ismail Haniyeh, the leader of Hamas, announced that the group accepted a ceasefire proposal for Gaza brokered by Qatar and Egypt. However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office stated that the proposal falls short of Israel’s demands. Nevertheless, Israel will send a delegation to Cairo for negotiations. Despite this diplomatic effort, Israel’s war cabinet decided to continue military operations in Rafah, with the Israeli army conducting strikes in the eastern part of the city.

UN agencies and aid organizations have expressed concerns about the devastating impact of any Israeli military assault on Rafah, particularly after Israel issued evacuation orders to tens of thousands of Palestinians ahead of potential attacks.
