Israeli air strikes continued in Gaza Sunday, despite President Trump's call for an immediate ceasefire Friday. Israeli government spokesperson Shosh Bedrosian confirmed that "while certain bombings have stopped inside the Gaza Strip, there's no ceasefire in place at this point in time." Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has given orders to fire back for defensive purposes. The negotiations are being closely watched by Egypt, which is hosting the talks.
