Southeast Asia Information Port News (www.dnyxxg.com) – The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced on the 29th that it had reinstated the Gaza ceasefire agreement. The Gaza Strip health department reported that a new round of IDF attacks had resulted in over 350 casualties in the Gaza Strip. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during his first visit to the ceasefire coordination center on the 29th, stated that he would ensure the disarmament of Hamas.
The IDF statement released on the 29th stated that, following instructions to attack targets in the Gaza Strip, it had reinstated the Gaza ceasefire agreement. The IDF and the Israeli State Security Directorate (Shin Bet) jointly struck 30 militants holding command positions within armed groups in the Gaza Strip.
The statement said that the IDF will continue to abide by the ceasefire agreement and will respond to any violations.
According to statistics from the Gaza Strip health department on the 29th, since the evening of the 28th, hospitals across the Gaza Strip have received 104 bodies and 253 wounded, including 124 children.
According to a report by *The Times of Israel* on the 30th, Netanyahu, IDF Chief of Staff Zamir, and Shin Bet Director Zini visited the newly established ceasefire coordination center on the 29th.
At the center, Netanyahu stated that ensuring the disarmament of Hamas and the demilitarization of the Gaza Strip is a goal Israel is "determined to achieve." Work on this is being carried out in phases, either "easily" or "through a difficult means."
The report stated that approximately 200 US military personnel and military personnel from several other countries have been deployed to the center. It is unclear which countries will send peacekeeping forces to the Gaza Strip. The main challenge will be monitoring Hamas's disarmament and destroying the remaining underground tunnels in the Gaza Strip.
According to Al Jazeera, Hamas issued a statement on the 29th calling on the Gaza ceasefire mediators to pressure Israel to cease attacks and abide by the agreement, while accusing the United States of providing "political cover" for Israel and directly encouraging "the continuation of aggression."
Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Salman stated on the same day that the primary task of the mediators in the Gaza conflict is to ensure the full implementation of the Gaza ceasefire agreement. Qatar is disappointed with Israel's actions and is in close communication with relevant parties to maintain the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
UN Secretary-General António Guterres, through his spokesperson, strongly condemned Israel's airstrikes on Gaza on the 28th, which caused casualties, including numerous children.
