Israeli warplanes have resumed bombing Gaza after the truce expired, resulting in more than 175 Palestinians dead and scores wounded, according to foreign media reports. Dozens of Palestinians have been killed since the attacks resumed, and the Israeli army has dropped leaflets instructing people to evacuate certain areas in southern Gaza. The hostilities resumed at 7am local time on Friday, with reports of rockets and gunfire emerging just before the truce expired. The US is working to restore the humanitarian pause in Gaza and is seeking the release of captives and the delivery of more humanitarian aid. Additionally, the Israeli Occupation has prevented the entry of aid through the Rafah border crossing, exacerbating the suffering of citizens. Israel has also informed Arab states of its plans to create a buffer zone in Gaza near its border to prevent future attacks.
