Hospitals in Gaza say 17 people have been killed in Israeli airstrikes on Saturday night and Sunday morning. The Israeli military says the strikes targeted Hamas military operatives. Palestinians are reporting an increase in the number of evacuation warnings and the scale of Israeli strikes. this comes after US President Donald Trump announced Hamas has agreed to disarm, and Israel would halt its attacks on Gaza and withdraw from the territory. Neil Quilliam, a Middle East expert at London’s Chatham House think tank, told the Associated Press he does not think President Trump's announcement will amount to much in reality.
