It certainly is Jemmy. The Israeli government has been unapologetic about these deadly air strikes, saying it was her Mass who chose to reignite this war. Today, the Israeli government repeated its message that this bombardment was carried out in full coordination with the US, saying that Hermas has refused to release the fifty nine hostages that remained captive, and even suggested there was intelligence that her Mask was about to carry out terrorist attacks on Israel. Now, those air strikes are continuing to fall in Gaza and the death toll is climbing. Among them are children, even babies. Her Mass has accused Israel of attacking defenseless civilians and pointed the finger at the US as being responsible for what it describes as massacres. Israel claims the option to extend the cease fire was there take a listen.
Hamas rejected two concrete mediation proposals presented by the US Special Envoy Steve Whitkoff as well agreed to these mediation proposals, Hamas refused them.
Now, the US President Donald Trump is yet to react to these airstrikes, though a US ambassador to the UN today said Hermas was warned to release the hostages or pay a high price. The relatives of those fifty nine hostages that remain captive fear that a deal is the only way they'll see their loved ones alive. Jemma, they feared time is running out.
