Ammon News - Israel said it would ramp up airstrikes on Gaza on Monday in a "mighty hurricane", to serve as a last warning to Hamas that it will destroy the enclave unless fighters accept a demand from U.S. President Donald Trump to free all hostages and surrender.

Residents said Israeli forces bombed Gaza City from the air and blew up armoured vehicles in its streets. Hamas said it was studying the latest U.S. ceasefire proposal, delivered on Sunday with a warning from Trump's that it was the militant group's "last chance".

"A mighty hurricane will hit the skies of Gaza City today, and the roofs of the terror towers will shake," Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz wrote on X.

Katz's post appeared before reports of shooting at a bus stop in Jerusalem that killed five people.

According to a senior Israeli official, the latest U.S. proposal for Gaza calls for Hamas to return all 48 remaining living and dead hostages on the first day of a ceasefire, during which negotiations would be held to end the war.
