After a two -month truce with Hamas in the Gaza Strip and weeks of fruitless negotiations on how to extend it, Israel started air bombings and land operations at the Palestinian enclave on March 18, with the Government of Benjamin, with the Government still holds.
All this comes as the indirect negotiations between Hamas and Israel, with the mediation of Qatar and Egypt, to release hostages and cease fire in Gaza are in a deadlock.
