US President Donald Trump on Monday that the ceasefire in Gaza remains in effect, after a series of Israeli strikes killed at least 97 people in the Palestinian territory, news agency AFP reported.

„Yes, it is,“ Trump told reporters aboard the presidential plane when asked if the cease-fire he helped broker was still in effect.

He also suggested that Hamas leaders were not involved in the alleged truce violations and instead blamed „some rebels within the movement.“
