On March 18, 2025, Israel launched extensive airstrikes across the Gaza Strip following the breakdown of ceasefire negotiations, resulting in over 400 Palestinian deaths, including many women and children. The attack marks one of the deadliest days since the conflict began in 2023. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that the strikes are "just the beginning," aiming to dismantle Hamas and secure the release of Israeli hostages. The renewed violence has drawn international condemnation and worsened the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, with hospitals overwhelmed and essential supplies running low.
