Middle East: Israel to renew ceasefire after targets hit  DW  10/29/2025
"The Gaza ceasefire is set to come into effect again after dozens of Israeli strikes in the enclave, according to the IDF. Israel launched strikes on Gaza after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of violating a ceasefire and ordered the military to carry out "powerful" attacks. A statement from Netanyahu's office did not specify the reason for the strikes, but an Israeli military official said Hamas had breached the truce by attacking Israeli forces in a controlled area."
"Netanyahu also accused Hamas of violating the agreement by returning the wrong remains during a hostage repatriation process. Israel said the remains were those of Ofir Tzarfati, whose body was recovered nearly two years ago, calling the handover a "clear violation" of the US-brokered deal. Hamas said it recovered another hostage's body Tuesday but delayed the handover after Israel announced plans to strike Gaza."

Netanyahu also said Hamas returned incorrect remains during a hostage repatriation, identifying the remains as Ofir Tzarfati and calling the handover a clear violation of the US-brokered deal. Hamas said it recovered another hostage's body but delayed the handover after Israel announced planned strikes. The IDF reported a precise strike on alleged terrorist infrastructure in Beit Lahia.
