Hamas & Friends started this conflict ...
It was Israel that started shooting first, unprovoked, on March
18th.
Do you have evidence to back it up?
You would expect somebody with skin in the game to keep up with
developments, and not require being led by the hand every time, would
you not?
From <
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_2025_Israeli_attacks_on_the_Gaza_Strip>:
In the early hours of 18 March 2025, Israel launched a surprise
attack[8] on the Gaza Strip, effectively ending the 2025 Gaza war
ceasefire. Israel's missile and artillery attack killed more than
400 Palestinians, including 263 women and children according to
the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry,[9] making it one of the
deadliest in the Gaza war.[10]
...
Hamas condemned the strikes as a violation of the ceasefire,
accusing Israel of endangering the remaining Israeli hostages.[19]
It began responding militarily to the Israeli strikes on 20 March,
when it fired rockets at Tel Aviv.[26][5] The Israeli government
said it carried out the attack in response to Hamas' refusal to
extend a ceasefire through additional hostage releases. Hamas had
agreed to the second phase of the original ceasefire agreement,
under which Israeli hostages would have been released in exchange
for a permanent end to the Gaza war.[27][14][28]
