Wakuu,
Jeshi la Israel limefanya mashambulizi makubwa Gaza, likisema linashambulia ngome za Hamas. Wizara ya Afya ya Hamas imeripoti vifo vya watu 330.
Mashambulizi yalianza alfajiri wakati wa daku, yakilenga Gaza City, Rafah, na Khan Younis. Israel imesema operesheni hiyo ni kujibu kukataa kwa Hamas kuachilia mateka na kukubali mapendekezo ya mazungumzo.
Hamas imeituhumu Israel kwa kusaliti makubaliano ya kusitisha mapigano na kuhatarisha maisha ya mateka waliobaki Gaza. Hata hivyo, haijatangaza rasmi kurejea vitani, ikitaka Umoja wa Mataifa na wawezeshaji wa mazungumzo kuingilia kati.
Taarifa kutoka Ikulu ya Marekani zinasema Israel ilishauriana na serikali ya Rais Donald Trump kabla ya mashambulizi hayo.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it was targeting what it called "terror targets" belonging to Hamas.
Mahmoud Abu Wafah, the deputy interior minister in Gaza and the highest-ranking Hamas security official in the territory, has reportedly been killed in a strike.
This is the largest wave of airstrikes in Gaza since the ceasefire began on 19 January. Talks to extend the Gaza ceasefire have failed to reach an agreement.
Many people were having their pre-dawn meal, due to it being the holy month of Ramadan, when explosions started in Gaza, witnesses say.
More than 20 Israeli war planes flew over, they said. The planes then began to hit targets in Gaza City, Rafah and Khan Younis.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Israel Katz ordered the strikes on Tuesday morning, according to a statement from the PM's office.
"This follows Hamas's repeated refusal to release our hostages, as well as its rejection of all of the proposals it has received from US Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff and from the mediators," it said.
