Hamas: Israel trying to foil Trump’s Gaza plan through ceasefire breaches

CAIRO – 29 October 2025: Hamas on Wednesday held Israel fully responsible for the recent escalation in Gaza, accusing Tel Aviv of attempting to undermine the ceasefire agreement and impose new realities by force.

A wave of Israeli airstrikes across Gaza overnight have killed at least 104 people, including 46 children and 20 women, according to Gaza’s health ministry.

The attacks appear to be the deadliest in Gaza since the ceasefire in the war-battered enclave took effect on 10 October.

Tel Aviv claims that a soldier was killed on Tuesday in Gaza by "enemy fire," triggering Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to order “powerful strikes” in defiance of the ceasefire. Hamas denied any involvement in the shooting.

According to the ministry, 253 people have also been injured, the majority of whom are also women and children.

Responding to the developments, US President Trump asserted that “nothing is going to jeopardize” the US-brokered ceasefire, while defending Israel’s right to “hit back.”

The US president called Hamas a “small part of the Middle East deal” and threatened that if the group “doesn’t behave properly, it will be eliminated.”

‘American Collusion’

In a Telegram statement, Hamas asserted that the Israeli escalation is taking place amid “American collusion that provides Netanyahu’s fascist government with political cover to continue its crimes.”

“The biased stance of the US administration constitutes a de facto partnership in the bloodshed of our children and women and serves as a direct encouragement for the continuation of the aggression,” the movement stressed.

Hamas emphasized that Israel bears full responsibility for this dangerous escalation and its military and political consequences.

The movement affirmed their commitment to the ceasefire agreement but warned that they will not allow the enemy to impose new facts under fire.”

“The world must recognize that the blood of our children and women is not cheap,” Hamas said.

“The resistance, with all its factions, which has committed to the agreement with responsible intent and remains committed to it, will not allow the enemy to impose new facts under fire.”

The movement urged ceasefire mediators and guarantors to pressure on the Israeli government to fully comply with the terms of the agreement.
