“Israel launched ‘extensive’ new ground operations in the Gaza Strip while airstrikes in its new offensive killed at least 103 people, including dozens of children, overnight and into Sunday, hospitals and medics said. The bombardment forced northern Gaza’s main hospital to close as it reported direct strikes. Israel began the offensive — the largest since it shattered a ceasefire in March — on Saturday with the aim of seizing territory and displacing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. Israel is pressuring Hamas to agree to a temporary ceasefire that would free hostages from Gaza but not necessarily end the war. Hamas says it wants a full withdrawal of Israeli forces and a path to ending the war as part of any deal.” (05/18/25)
