Gaza Strip - February 09, 2025 Since the beginning of the conflict between Israeli forces and Hamas in early October 2023, the Palestinian death toll from Israeli attacks on Gaza has risen to 48,219, with 111,665 others injured, Gaza-based health authorities said in a statement on Tuesday. The Israeli army has killed 92 Palestinians and wounded 822 others in direct strikes on the Gaza Strip since its truce with Hamas began on Jan. 19, the health authorities reported. Health workers have also recovered 641 bodies, with about 197 of them unidentified, since the truce went into effect, Munir al-Barash, director general of the health authorities, said in another statement. Since the meeting between the heads of the U.S. and Israel this month, remarks on the U.S. "taking over" the enclave have cast a shadow over the outlook for the future of the ceasefire agreement, increasing the risk of reigniting the conflict. Some experts believe that with support from U.S. President Donald Trump, the Israeli government is likely to be more aggressive over issues related to Gaza and the Middle East in the future as it seeks to expand its borders. On Monday, Abu Obeida, spokesman for the Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, said in a statement that during the past three weeks, the resistance leadership had monitored Israel's failures to abide by the terms of the ceasefire agreement. Accordingly, the handover of the hostages on Saturday will be postponed until further notice and until Israel ensures adherence to the deal and compensates for the past weeks retroactively, Obeida noted. "We affirm our commitment to the terms of the agreement as long as the occupation commits to them." In response, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said Monday in a statement that Hamas' announcement is "a complete violation of the Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal." Katz said he had ordered the IDF to "prepare at the highest level of readiness for any possible scenario in Gaza and to defend the communities near the enclave." The Israeli military announced on Tuesday that it would increase its forces near the Gaza Strip and call up reservists after the Israeli Cabinet, on the same day, decided to cancel the ceasefire with Hamas if the Israeli hostages were not returned by Saturday. A military spokesperson confirmed in a statement, "It was decided to reinforce the area with additional troops, including reservists." The spokesperson emphasized that this decision was made "in accordance with the situational assessment." Under the current ceasefire, which took effect on Jan. 19 after 15 months of war, 21 hostages -- 16 Israelis and five Thais -- were released from Gaza in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian detainees freed from Israeli jails. During the first phase of the agreement, which spans six weeks, 33 Israeli hostages and about 2,000 Palestinian detainees are expected to be released.
