What to know about why Israel launched dozens of attacks across Gaza, raising fears of all-out war
Associated PressTEL AVIV, Israel — The relative calm of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas came to an abrupt end on Tuesday when Israel launched dozens of attacks on targets across the Gaza Strip. Israel balked at entering substantive negotiations over the second phase, which were meant to lead to a long-term ceasefire, a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and the return of all hostages taken by Hamas in its Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel that started the war. The new plan would require Hamas to release half its remaining hostages — the militant group’s main bargaining chip — in exchange for a ceasefire extension and a promise to negotiate a lasting truce. Unless mediators step in, Israel’s surprise attack could mean a full return to fighting in a 17-month war that has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians and caused widespread destruction across Gaza.
