EL CAIRO/GAZA, (Reuters) – Aviones y tanques israelíes bombardearon zonas del este de Gaza el jueves, según informaron residentes palestinos y testigos, un día después de que Israel afirmara que seguía comprometido con el alto el fuego respaldado por Estados Unidos a pesar de haber lanzado bombardeos más letales en el territorio.
Según testigos, aviones israelíes realizaron diez ataques aéreos en zonas al este de Jan Yunis, en el sur de la Franja de Gaza, mientras que tanques bombardearon zonas al este de la ciudad de Gaza, en el norte. No se reportaron heridos ni fallecidos.
El ejército israelí afirmó haber llevado a cabo ataques «precisos» contra «infraestructura terrorista que representaba una amenaza para las tropas» en las zonas que Israel aún ocupa.
Los ataques fueron la última prueba del frágil alto el fuego que entró en vigor el 10 de octubre en el conflicto entre Israel y Hamás .
“Tenemos miedo de que estalle otra guerra, porque no queremos una guerra. Hemos sufrido dos años de desplazamiento. No sabemos adónde ir ni adónde venir”, dijo un hombre desplazado, Fathi Al-Najjar, en Khan Younis, en el sur de Gaza.
En el campamento de tiendas de campaña donde habló Najjar, niñas y niños llenaban botellas de plástico con agua de recipientes metálicos colocados al borde de la calle, y las mujeres cocinaban comida para sus familias utilizando hornos de leña hechos de barro.

REGRESO DE LOS REHENES FALLECIDOS
En virtud del acuerdo de alto el fuego, Hamás liberó a todos los rehenes vivos a cambio de casi 2.000 prisioneros palestinos y detenidos de guerra, mientras que Israel retiró sus tropas y acordó detener su ofensiva.
Hamas también accedió a entregar los restos de los 28 rehenes fallecidos. Ha devuelto 15 cuerpos, argumentando que llevará tiempo localizar y recuperar todos los demás.
The militant group’s armed wing announced on Thursday that it would hand over two more bodies of hostages at 4 p.m. local time (1400 GMT).
The recovery and handover of bodies of hostages in Gaza has been one of the obstacles to U.S. President Donald Trump’s Gaza plan, with Israel claiming that Hamas has been delaying the handover, an accusation Hamas denies.
GAZA OFFICIALS SAY WOMEN AND CHILDREN KILLED
From Tuesday into Wednesday, Israel retaliated for the death of an Israeli soldier with bombardments that Gaza health authorities said killed 104 people.
Witnesses in Gaza said they did not see strikes on Thursday outside of the area Israel controls.
Israel says the soldier was killed in an attack by gunmen on territory within the so-called «yellow line» to which its troops withdrew under the ceasefire. Hamas has rejected the accusation.
The Israeli military issued a list of 26 militants it said it had targeted during the bombardment earlier this week, including one it said was a Hamas commander who participated in the October 7, 2023 assault on Israel that ignited the war.
The Hamas-run Gaza government media office said Israel’s list was part of a «systematic campaign of misinformation» to cover up «crimes against civilians in Gaza».
The Gaza health ministry said 46 children and 20 women were among the 104 people killed in the airstrikes.
Sources close to international efforts to sustain the ceasefire said U.S. and regional mediators swiftly intervened to restore calm as Israel and Hamas traded blame.
STRIKES RAISE DOUBTS IN GAZA
People in the Gaza Strip, most of which had been reduced to wasteland, feared the tenuous truce would fall apart, saying that the last two days, in which they were deprived of sleep, felt like a revival of the two-year war.
«The situation is extremely difficult. The war is still ongoing, and we have no hope that it will end, because of the conditions we are witnessing in the life we are living,» said Mohammed Al-Sheikh.
The war has displaced most of Gaza’s more than two million people, some of them several times. Many haven’t yet returned to their areas, fearing they could soon be displaced once again.
Gaza health authorities say 68,000 people are confirmed killed in the Israeli campaign and thousands more are missing. Israel launched the war after Hamas-led fighters attacked southern Israel, killing 1,200 people and bringing 251 hostages back to Gaza, according to Israeli tallies.
