Hamas: Israeli escalation aims to derail ceasefire implementation

Hamas accused Israel of deliberately escalating its attacks on Gaza to derail understandings reached with mediators and the US administration on completing implementation of the ceasefire agreement.
In a statement on Sunday, the Palestinian resistance group said Israeli attacks since Sunday morning had killed more than 18 Palestinians and “wiped out” entire families.
The bombardment constituted “a deliberate escalation by the government of war criminal Netanyahu, aimed at obstructing the understandings reached with the mediators, including the US administration, to complete the implementation of the ceasefire agreement,” it said.
Hamas called on the mediators and guarantors of the ceasefire agreement to “assume their responsibilities,” condemn the Israeli attacks and “immediately” pressure Israel to halt its assaults and comply with the agreement.
