The U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas survived its first major test Sunday after deadly clashes left dozens dead.
Israeli forces launched strikes in Gaza after Hamas militants allegedly killed two Israeli soldiers. Palestinian officials said at least 36 Palestinians, including children, were killed.
Israeli officials temporarily halted humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza, saying they would resume Monday. President Donald Trump said Sunday the ceasefire remains in place but described Hamas as “quite rambunctious.”
“They’ve been doing some shooting and we think maybe the leadership is involved in that — you know, some rebels within,” the president said. “But either way it’s going to be, it’s going to be handled properly. It’s going to be handled toughly but properly.”
