Israeli media prominently covered Hamas's declaration to US envoys that the ceasefire had ended and they were "ready to fight" in the early afternoon, following earlier reports of US plans to establish Palestinian settlements in Gaza. This announcement was met with immediate Israeli strikes in Gaza and southern Lebanon, including the reported elimination of a senior Hamas commander. Throughout the day, protests across Israel demanding a state commission of inquiry into recent events gained increasing attention, with opposition leaders and bereaved families participating. Concurrently, PM Netanyahu sharing an article accusing Israel of genocide drew sharp criticism. By evening, disturbing testimony from a former Hamas hostage detailing sexual assault and abuse also received significant media focus.
