At least 330 Palestinians are dead after a series of Israeli air strikes on Gaza ended a weeks-long standoff over extending the ceasefire.
The Israeli military, which reported it hit dozens of targets, said the attacks would continue for as long as necessary and extend beyond air strikes.
It comes after Hamas issued a statement accusing Israel of breaching the terms of the truce agreed on January 19.
Strikes were reported in multiple locations, including northern Gaza, Gaza City and the Deir al-Balah, Khan Younis and Rafah in central and southern Gaza Strip. Palestinian health ministry officials said many of the dead were children.
In hospitals strained by 15 months of bombardment, piles of bodies in white plastic sheets could be seen stacked up as casualties were brought in.
