Gaza Ceasefire Will Continue Between Airstrikes, Confirms IDF

THE Israeli Defense Force (IDF) has dismissed suggestions that the Gaza ceasefire has been broken on numerous occasions, claiming that peace is still in place ‘between bombing campaigns’.

Israel launched waves of lethal airstrikes on Sunday and cut off all aid into Gaza ‘until further notice’ after it alleged Hamas had carried out an attack, but insisted everything is ‘going to plan’ in between all the death and destruction.

“When you discount the bombing raids, shootings, public executions, mortar fire, the lack of critical aid in the required quantities and missile attacks, the ceasefire is going pretty well in Gaza,” an IDF statement read, after admitting to opening fire on ‘several people’ for crossing a yellow line they painted to contain the peace.

Echoing the statement, US President Donald Trump backed up the ceasefire claims: “Never before has there been so much peace. Gazans are emailing me every day saying how peaceful it is since I visited last week. When an IDF jet has to refuel between airstrikes, there’s so much peace. People need to start looking at the positives, not the negatives.”

The IDF later confirmed there will be short ‘pauses’ in the ongoing peace deal during planned attacks on the region but warned that any retaliation from Hamas will be treated as a ‘breach of the ceasefire’.
