Israeli strikes kill at least eight in Gaza as disarmament roadmap stalls

7 sources

Gaza's civil defence says Israeli strikes killed at least eight people across the Strip on Sunday, days after Hamas accepted a US-brokered disarmament deal. Israel has not said publicly whether it accepts the terms.

What happened

Trump's Board of Peace published a 15-point roadmap for last year's ceasefire; Hamas confirmed on Friday, 31 July, it would disarm.
An Israeli strike a day later destroyed two of Al-Aqsa hospital's four medicine warehouses in central Gaza, Gaza's health ministry said.
Israel's army said the site stored Hamas weapons and that it had warned residents; the hospital's spokesman rejected that claim.
Sunday's dead include a man and woman hit by an Israeli helicopter strike south of Deir al-Balah.
Gaza's health ministry counted 152 people killed in July, its highest monthly toll this year.

The view from outside

Al Jazeera alone reports a former Fatah official in the UAE saying Trump's senior adviser on the plan told him he is working with Israel to stop the strikes. Tolls diverge: Reuters headlines four dead on Sunday, Le Monde counts at least 16 since Saturday.

What could happen next

The roadmap remains unimplemented: no disarmament and no Israeli withdrawal have begun.
Israel has not officially responded; its prime minister has made no public statement on the deal.
Hamas and Islamic Jihad officials in Cairo demanded on Saturday that Israel be compelled to stop all attacks.

How the camps see it

Israel: Says it struck Hamas members and weapons stores, and that troops will not leave current positions without genuine disarmament.
Hamas: Says it will hand over heavy weapons for storage only after Israel halts its attacks and withdraws, calling the ball Israel's.
