Hamas said early Tuesday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had resumed his genocidal war, having failed to honor his commitments and fulfill his obligations to mediators regarding the ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement, which he had reversed during his massive attack on the Gaza Strip.

"Netanyahu didn't just prevent food and medicine from entering Gaza, he also bombed and killed the children of Gaza while they slept," movement leader Izzat al-Rishq added in a statement.

He continued: "The occupier did not respect its pledges and did not fulfill its obligations to the mediators and the world."

He considered Netanyahu's decision to resume the war of extermination "a lifeboat for him from the internal crises," noting that this decision means "sacrificing the occupation's prisoners and sentencing them to death."

He called on Arab and Islamic countries and the international community to "take action to curb Israeli brutality and its war of extermination against civilians in Gaza."

He also called on the mediators to "reveal the facts about Netanyahu's reversal of the ceasefire agreement and hold him solely responsible for pouring oil on the fire in Gaza and the region."

Al-Rashq reiterated his movement's assertion that Israel "will not achieve through war what it failed to achieve through negotiations."

He called on the people of the Arab and Islamic nations to demonstrate in rejection of Israel's resumption of its genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza.

At dawn on Tuesday, Netanyahu resumed the genocide in Gaza with a massive, surprise airstrike that killed more than 190 Palestinians, including children.

According to local sources, the Israeli occupation forces directly targeted civilian homes, displaced persons' tents, and shelters.

The attack came after Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yisrael Katz instructed the military to act "forcefully" against the Gaza Strip, allegedly because Hamas had rejected offers it received from US envoy Steve Witkoff and mediators, according to a statement from Netanyahu's office.

Hebrew media reported on Thursday that US envoy Witkoff had presented an updated proposal to both sides stipulating the release of five Israeli prisoners in exchange for a 50-day ceasefire, the release of Palestinian prisoners from Israeli jails, the delivery of humanitarian aid, and the entry into negotiations on the second phase.

Hamas announced on Friday its acceptance of a proposal submitted by mediators, which includes the release of an Israeli-American soldier and the bodies of four dual nationals, as part of the resumption of negotiations for the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement.

Netanyahu's office statement claimed that the army targeted Hamas targets in its attack, while vowing that "Israel will act against Hamas with increased military force from now on."

In turn, the Israeli occupation army and the General Security Service (Shin Bet) said in a joint statement: "Based on directives from the political echelon, IDF and Shin Bet forces are launching a large-scale attack in various parts of the Gaza Strip."

For its part, Hamas considered the attack in a statement "a resumption of the war of genocide and a coup against the ceasefire agreement."

In early March, the first phase of the 42-day ceasefire agreement in Gaza ended, while Israel evaded entering the second phase and ending the war.

Israel seeks to extend the first phase of the agreement, which entered into force on January 19, 2025, to release the largest possible number of Israeli prisoners without offering compensation or fulfilling the military and humanitarian obligations stipulated in the agreement.

In return, Hamas affirms its commitment to implementing the agreement, demands that Israel abide by all its provisions, and calls on mediators to immediately begin negotiations for the second phase, which includes an Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip and a complete cessation of hostilities.
