Trump says Gaza ceasefire still in place as Israel and Hamas accuse each other of breach | BBC News

US President Donald Trump says the ceasefire in Gaza is still in place, hours after Israel's military said it carried out a wave of strikes against Hamas.

The Israel Defence Forces said it would resume enforcement of the ceasefire, after Israel and Hamas accused each other of breaching the deal.

Strikes began in southern Gaza on Sunday after the Israeli military said "terrorists fired an anti-tank missile and gunfire" toward its troops in Rafah, killing two soldiers.

Hamas said it was "unaware" of any clashes in the area under Israeli control and said it was committed to the ceasefire, but accused Israel of violations and warned strikes could "push the situation toward a total collapse”.
