Israel breaks the ceasefire

During the ceasefire, many Palestinians tried to return back to their homes in Northern Gaza. Israel, which had already forcibly removed millions of them in an ethnic cleansing, immediately broke the ceasefire by murdering 2 and injuring 11 on November 24. Jabalia refugee camp and Indonesian Hospital were also attacked by the IDF. Over 100 Palestinians alone were killed in the former. Claims of attacks by Hamas have been more spurious, as claims of a Hamas bombing have only came from the IDF.
The Palestinian Reaction

Nevertheless, Palestinians saw the ceasefire as a sign of hope. The nearly two months of genocidal warfare on them had finally ended, and they were able to feel relief knowing that they might not have had a bomb dropped on them. Even then, Israel saw these celebrations as intolerable slights. Interior Security Minister Ben Gvir said that these actions done by Palestinians were to be prohibited. He stated that "Expressions of joy are equivalent to backing terrorism." Although it was extended by November 27, many wanted a permanent end to the fighting. They had been unjustly removed from their homes in the north, and wanted to return. As soon as the ceasefire ended, 175 Palestinians were killed by airstrikes by Israel.
