The ceasefire deal brought by the U.S. between Hamas and Israel seems to have survived its first test after two Israeli soldiers were kille

The "wave of strikes" by the Israel Defense Forces comes after Israel and Hamas accused each other of violating their ceasefire in Gaza.

The incident highlights the tense and fragile nature of the Trump-brokered ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.

The Israel Defense Forces are investigating reports Israeli troops who were occupying a key sewage treatment plant in Gaza set it ablaze amid a drawdown of their forces from much of the enclave's territory last week as a part of the first phase of the ceasefire deal.

Israel has confirmed it has resumed enforcement of the peace deal in Gaza following fresh airstrikes against Hamas.

One body Hamas returned to Israel as part of the ceasefire deal "does not match any of the hostages," the Israel Defense Forces said on Wednesday.
