The number of Palestinians killed by Israeli occupation forces in the West Bank and Gaza Strip since the beginning of the year has risen to 144, according to ministry data.
The Strip's leading political party, Hamas, has said that "the ceasefire will end when the Israeli atrocities end."
"Whoever initiated this aggression has to bear the consequences of their crimes. It is not a question of what the Palestinians should do. It is a question of what the international community has to do," Hamas member Khaled Qadomi was quoted as saying by the Al-Jazeera news agency.
According to Free Palestine, the aggression on Gaza has focused on populated areas, agricultural infrastructure, and the destruction of streets, roads, and infrastructure such as electricity, water, and sewage networks.
The Gaza Strip is home to more than two million people. One and a half million residents live in eight official refugee camps. It has been under an Israeli air, land, and sea blockade since 2007.
