An Israeli airstrike in Khan Younis, Gaza, killed senior Hamas political leader Salah al Bardaweel and his wife, Hamas officials confirmed. “He was a beacon of political, media, and national activism,” Hamas stated. The attack also killed several Palestinians, including women and children, according to local hospitals. Gaza health officials reported over 50,000 deaths since the war began. Israel resumed airstrikes, accusing Hamas of violating a ceasefire. Israeli Ambassador to the UK Tzipi Hotovely said, “Hamas is not releasing hostages anymore. Israel has no other choice.” Talks for a permanent ceasefire remain uncertain. (PC: Reuters)
