Israel-Hamas war ceasefire begins today

48

Israel: Hours before the ceasefire, officials told news agency Reuters that a hospital in Gaza was one of the targets that was bombed. Both sides have agreed to resume the fight after the temporary stop.

“These will be complicated days and nothing is certain… Even during this process, there could be changes. Control over northern Gaza is the first step of a long war, and we are preparing for the next stages,” Israeli military spokesperson Daniel Hagari said.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has promised to continue the war after the truce ends and destroy the military capabilities of Hamas, end its 16-year-long rule in Gaza and free 240 hostages held in Gaza.

Turkey’s health ministry said on Thursday that it was planning to evacuate wounded or sick Gaza children and young people on Friday, Reuters reported.

A total of 14,500 people — 13,300 Palestinians and 1,200 Israelis — have lost their lives since Hamas entered Israeli towns on October 7 using motor gliders, boats and trucks starting the ongoing war. In retaliation, Israel launched a devastating invasion of the Gaza Strip along with shutting supply of fuel, electricity and water in the strip.
