In a bid to halt the fighting, the Biden administration has spearheaded an intense diplomatic campaign in recent days to compel the two sides to reach a deal that would stop the war and see Israeli hostages released. U.S. officials have likewise been racing to head off a wider regional conflict, as Iran and Lebanon’s powerful paramilitary force Hezbollah promise to attack Israel over recent strikes on militant leaders.
The site of Saturday’s bombing in Gaza City, and the scale of the bloodshed, brought a swift international response.
The United States, Israel’s closest ally, expressed concern about the strike and said it had asked for more information. Like other nations that have backed Israel’s response to Hamas’s brutal attack on Oct. 7, Washington has blamed the militant group for using civilian sites to mask its military activities, but has also called on Israel to do more to keep noncombatants safe.
“Far too many civilians continue to be killed and wounded,” National Security Council spokesperson Sean Savett said in a statement. “This underscores the urgency of a cease-fire and hostage deal.”
Foreign Secretary David Lammy of Britain, another key Israeli ally, said he was “appalled” by the incident. “Hamas must stop endangering civilians. Israel must comply with international humanitarian law,” he wrote on social media.
France decried the targeting of Gaza schools and what its Foreign Ministry called Saturday’s “intolerable” death toll.

The messages may also reflect changes in position within these camps. Senior Iranian military and security officials, as well as Iranian armed forces- and IRGC-affiliated media, have suggested that Iran and its Axis of Resistance seek to conduct a coordinated, large-scale attack on Israel.
Israel does not hold any “hostages or POWs” There is nothing to “exchange.”
Thousands of POW’s……
in regards to exchanging an innocent person for an innocent person or a legitimate combatant for a legitimate combatant. They can only exchange many, many guilty people for far fewer innocent civilians, and Hamas seems to have no intention of doing so.
Thus, Israel has to try to rescue them where they are being held.
Tell ur story to the THOUSANDS of Israel’s that have demostrated for their country to get the hostages back with a cease fire…..
U did NOT read the story about abuse to Arab POW’s by Israeli solders who get arrested?
