"Fragile Ceasefire Shaken: Israeli Airstrike Claims Nine Lives in Gaza

In a tragic escalation of violence, an Israeli airstrike in the northern Gaza town of Beit Lahiya has claimed the lives of at least nine Palestinians, including two local journalists. The strike, which targeted a vehicle, left several others critically injured, according to Gaza's health ministry.

The incident underscores the fragility of the ceasefire agreement established earlier this year. Palestinian health officials report that dozens have been killed despite the truce, raising concerns about its sustainability. The airstrike coincided with ongoing ceasefire negotiations in Cairo, where Hamas leaders are seeking a resolution to the conflict.

The Israeli military has yet to comment on the incident, while Hamas has accused Israel of undermining the ceasefire. This latest development adds to the mounting tension in the region, with both sides facing international pressure to find a lasting solution.
