Israeli Airstrikes in Gaza Kill Senior Hamas Commander and Others Amid Ceasefire Tensions

Israeli airstrikes in Gaza's Deir al-Balah killed seven people, including Mohammed Al-Holy, a senior Hamas armed wing commander, and a 16-year-old, according to Hamas and health officials. Hamas condemned the strikes, accusing Israel of violating the October ceasefire and attempting to reignite conflict. Both sides have blamed each other for ceasefire breaches amid ongoing tensions following Israel's October 2023 operations in Gaza, which have caused significant casualties and destruction.
