Sham Elheikh, Egypt (Reuters)-Israeli tanks, boats and jets bombed parts of the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, without giving the Palestinians on the anniversary of Hamas’s attack that led to two years of war and highlighting the challenges of Donald Trump’s plan to stop the conflict.
Without ceasefire, residents said Israel continued with their offensive after Hamas and Israel started indirect negotiations on Monday in Sharm Elheikh, Egypt, on key issues such as Israel de Gaza and Hamas’s disarmament.
Negotiations on the US President’s plan are widely seen as the most promising so far to end a war that has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians and devastated Gaza since the October 7 attack against Israel, which killed 1,200 people.

Qatar adopts caution
But Qatar, which was mediator in previous attempts to ensure a ceasefire along with US and Egypt, said many details still need to be resolved.
“The plan consists of 20 points, and all these points require practical interpretations on the ground,” said Qatar Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed Al-Ansari, at a press conference.
Hamas delivering the hostages seized in the 2023 attack would mean the end of the war, he said.

Without ceasefire after two years of war
Residents of Khan Younis in southern Gaza and the city of Gaza in the north reported heavy bombing of tanks and airplanes at dawn on Tuesday. The Israeli forces bombed several districts by air, sea and earth, according to them.
Gaza militants fired rockets through the border early Tuesday, firing air strike sirens at Israeli Kibbutz Netiv Haasara, and Israeli troops continued to face gunmen inside the enclave, the Israeli military.
To mark the anniversary of Hamas’s attack, Israelis gathered in some of the hardest affected places of that day, including the New Music Festival, where 364 people were shot, beaten or burned to death, and on the so -called Praça dos Hostilos in Tel Aviv.

All of these places remind the most bloody Israelis for Jews from the Holocaust.
Orit Baron, whose daughter Yuval was killed with her fiance Moshe Shuva at the New Festival, was next to a picture of her daughter at the scene.
“They should have married on February 14, Valentine’s Day. And both families decided, because in fact they were found (dead) together and brought them to us together, that the funeral would be together,” Baron said.

“They are buried next to each other because they have never been separated.”
Since the beginning of the war, more than 67,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, almost a third of them children under 18, according to Gaza’s health authorities.
Last month, an UN investigation committee assessed that Israel committed genocide in Gaza. Israel called the conclusion of the biased and “scandalous.”

“It’s been two years since we’ve been living with fear, horror, displacement and destruction,” said Mohammed Dib, a 49 -year -old resident, expressing hopes of an end to the conflict.
