#BREAKING Tensions have once again erupted in Gaza, as Israel launched new airstrikes on Rafah and Jabalia — just hours after reports of renewed clashes between Israeli forces and Hamas despite the ongoing US-brokered ceasefire.
According to Israeli media:
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held an emergency call with Defense Minister Israel Katz and senior IDF commanders as strikes began hitting multiple targets in southern Gaza. Israel’s public broadcaster Kan confirmed air operations in Rafah, while Channel 12 and The Times of Israel reported that “terror operatives” had attacked Israeli positions beyond the so-called “yellow line”, allegedly breaching the truce.
🕊️ Ceasefire on the Brink
The fragile ceasefire — brokered by Washington earlier this month — now hangs in the balance. Both sides are accusing each other of violations:
Israel claims Hamas launched multiple attacks on IDF units in Rafah.
Hamas accuses Israel of “47 ceasefire violations” since the truce began, including drone activity, raids, and sniper fire.
Adding to the tensions, Netanyahu announced that the Rafah border crossing with Egypt will remain closed until Hamas returns the bodies of deceased hostages. Hamas, in turn, condemned the move as a “blatant breach of the ceasefire terms”, warning it undermines the mediation process led by the US and Egypt.
⚡ The Human and Political Fallout
The renewed violence threatens not only to derail ongoing peace efforts but also to deepen the humanitarian crisis in Gaza — where over a million civilians remain displaced. Meanwhile, analysts warn the escalation could ripple through regional markets and commodities:
🛢️ Oil prices could see short-term volatility amid fears of a broader regional conflict.
🪙 Gold and Bitcoin may attract safe-haven demand as geopolitical tensions rise.
For now, both Hamas and the IDF have not issued formal statements on the latest airstrikes, but the situation is rapidly developing.
Will this be the final collapse of the ceasefire — or another brief flare-up before diplomacy resumes?
