International News: Israeli air strikes in Gaza on Saturday resulted in the deaths of at least 23 Palestinians, with three children and their parents among the victims. The bombings continued as international warnings grew over Israeli plans to control aid deliveries to Gaza. Earlier, a UN agency warehouse was targeted in an attack in Jabalia late Friday night. Four people were killed in this attack.

The Israeli army said that nine of its soldiers were injured when an explosive device exploded during a search operation in the Shujaiya area of ​​Gaza City. However, the situation in Gaza is very bad due to Israel's blockade. Kitchens and relief centers are being closed because food supplies are on the verge of running out.

Trying to put pressure on Hamas

Israel says that this is being done to put pressure on Hamas so that it can be forced to release hostages and lay down arms. While human rights organizations have called it a weapon of starvation and a possible war crime. However, the United Nations and many relief organizations have protested against Israel's plan to control the distribution of relief materials.Proposal from Gaza Humanitarian Foundation Dropped

Bombing resumes in Gaza

On March 18, Israel broke its two-month-long truce with Hamas and restarted airstrikes on Gaza. 
Israeli ground forces have now taken control of more than half of Gaza, conducting military operations and search missions in the northern areas and in Rafah. 

Vow to destroy Hamas

After the October 7, 2023 attack on southern Israel, in which over 1,200 people—mostly civilians—were killed and more than 250 taken hostage by militants, Israel pledged to eliminate Hamas completely. Hamas still holds about 59 hostages, about a third of whom are estimated to be still alive. The hostages appear to be under significant pressure in the footage. The release has sparked protests in Tel Aviv, where demonstrators are demanding a ceasefire and the safe return of all hostages. This latest video is part of a series of footage released by Hamas, which has previously shown the duo and Bohbot alone.
