So, on Sunday, Hamas was like, "Hey, guys, the talks about a cease-fire in Gaza are definitely not on pause." This is even though things have been getting pretty intense with some recent flare-ups in the area. The Israelis have been dropping bombs and trying to get some big Hamas players, like military big shot Mohammed Deif.
What Happened to Mohammed Deif?
Israeli Prime Minister, Benny Netanyahu, played it cool about whether or not they got Deif. They said they hit a place where he might've been hiding, but Hamas is saying, "Nah, he's still kicking."
How's That Cease-fire Thing Going?
Some people are worried that all this craziness might mess up the peace talks, but Hamas is all, "Don't worry, we're still talking." Jihad Taha, one of their spokespeeps, is saying that mediators are still working hard to make sure everyone plays nice.
Gaza's Humanitarian Situation is Getting Worse
These airstrikes are making a bad situation even worse. A lot of people are getting hurt, including regular folks and kids. The hospitals are absolutely packed, and it's chaos over there.
What the Rest of the World Thinks and What the Israelis Say
Israel's Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant, is basically giving a thumbs up to their military for going after Hamas. But the international crowd isn't too happy with all the fighting. They're saying, "C'mon, guys, let's try to keep the peace."
