The "humanitarian pause" that began on November 24th at 08:00 a.m. as outlined in the agreement between Israel and Palestinian resistance group Hamas expired earlier today.

According to a written IDF statement, Palestinian resistance fighters have been accused of breaking the "humanitarian pause," resulting in the Israeli army resuming their operations in the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli Army has announced that Khan Younis, the biggest settlement in southern Gaza, is now considered a war zone. They have also released an "evacuation area map" as they prepare for the next phase of the conflict. The statement includes details on safe areas for Gazans to evacuate to.

During the humanitarian pause, the Gaza Ministry of Interior announced that Israeli warplanes had resumed flying over Gaza. Additionally, military vehicles from Israel were reported to have targeted the northern area of the strip.

According to an official statement from the Israeli military, airstrikes have been launched on Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip. Furthermore, Israeli warplanes have also conducted raids on multiple locations within Gaza.

Moreover, conflicts have sparked once again in the northern and central regions of Gaza between Israeli forces and Palestinian organizations.

The Gaza Ministry of Health stated that, after the conclusion of the "humanitarian pause," numerous Palestinians were killed in Israeli assaults in Gaza, with a significant number of women and children among those injured.

The wounded and deceased were taken to the Abu Yusur al-Najjar Hospital.

In the northwestern area of Gaza City, confrontations between Israeli forces and Palestinian factions took place near the "En-Nasr" and "Rantisi" medical facilities.

In a Telegram release, the Gaza government's media office announced that the Israeli army has once again launched a brutal attack on the Palestinian people living in Gaza.

The statement stressed that the Israeli military attacked multiple residences and civilian locations in the Gaza Strip. It also highlighted the role of the international community in permitting Israel's ongoing conflict with Gaza.
