Israeli forces launched large aerial attacks across the Gaza Strip early Tuesday morning, in the first major strikes on the territory since Israel’s cease-fire with Hamas began roughly two months ago. Gaza’s health ministry said more than 400 people, including children, had been killed in the attacks, which raised the prospect of a return to all-out war.
The Israeli military announced just before 2:30 a.m. local time that it was “conducting extensive strikes on terror targets” belonging to Hamas. Shortly afterward, Hamas said in a statement that Israeli forces had “resumed their aggression” in the Gaza Strip. Gaza residents reported intense strikes across the territory.
