Israel ramps up deadly airstrikes on Gaza after ceasefire deal is reached
In two days since a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas was announced Wednesday, fighting in Gaza and a series of deadly airstrikes have killed 115 people.
The Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal will go into effect too late for Akram Abu Ahmed to see his children again.
His family's sole survivor after an Israeli airstrike, Ahmed was sleeping in bed near Gaza City in the early hours of Thursday after celebrating news of the truce when he heard a loud sound and was thrown into the air.
“Dust and screams surrounded me,” he said, adding that his wife and three of his children were killed, including a daughter whom he said was a doctor.
“Is this what they aim for? Killing doctors?” he said. “This is the question I want you to answer, Netanyahu: Why did you kill my daughter?”
In less than two days since the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas was announced Wednesday, fighting in Gaza and a series of deadly airstrikes have killed at least 115 people, Mahmoud Basal, spokesperson for Gaza's Civil Defense agency told NBC News on Friday.
