Israeli strikes on Gaza intensified in the days following a US-brokered agreement described as a 'breakthrough.'

On July 30, Donald Trump announced a plan calling for the disarmament of Hamas's arsenal and the withdrawal of Israeli troops from the Palestinian enclave.

On August 2, Gaza experienced one of its deadliest days in recent weeks.

Israel reaffirmed it will not withdraw from Gaza before the full disarmament of Hamas.
