Hamas leader Sami Abu Zuhri has told AFP that Israeli strikes that killed more than 400 people overnight in the Gaza Strip were an attempt to force the group’s “surrender”, and called the United States “complicit” in the escalation.

“The aim of the massacres committed by the occupation in Gaza is to undermine the ceasefire agreement and attempt to impose a surrender agreement, writing it in the blood of Gaza,” Abu Zuhri told AFP in a statement.
