Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have killed several people despite US President Donald Trump's claims of a breakthrough in ceasefire negotiations.

US President Donald Trump announced a breakthrough in ceasefire negotiations earlier this week, asserting that Israel would halt its bombardment and Hamas would surrender its weapons. However, military activity on the ground shows little evidence that an agreement has taken effect.

Israeli airstrikes reportedly killed four Palestinians in Gaza on Sunday. The strikes followed attacks on Saturday that killed at least two people in Gaza City. Despite diplomatic assertions from Washington regarding progress toward a cessation of hostilities, aerial bombardments and casualties continue to be reported across the Palestinian territory.
