Even after the ceasefire was announced, Gaza's airstrikes continued... "77 killed."

At least 77 people were killed as Israeli airstrikes continued even after the announcement of a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, Reuters reported.

Gaza's Civil Defence said several parts of Gaza had been bombed, with children and women among the 77 dead.

He also explained that 230 people were injured and that the bombing was continuing.

Earlier, foreign media reported that Israeli air strikes continued in Gaza City in northern Gaza, Rafa in southern Gaza, and Nusairat in central Gaza, destroying several houses.

The Israeli military said Gaza militants fired rockets at the country on the 16th local time, and there were no casualties.

The cease-fire was scheduled to take effect on the 19th (Sunday) if approved by the Israeli cabinet, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was postponing the cabinet meeting, arguing that Hamas violated the agreement.
