Israel begins

The Israeli army began a limited pause in fighting in three populated areas of Gaza For 10 hours a day, as part of a series of steps that, he says, would give the United Nations and other help agencies ensure land routes to address a deeper hunger crisis.

Israel’s defense forces said a “tactical pause” would begin in the city of Gaza, Deir Al-Balah and Muwasi, three areas of the territory with large populations, to “increase the humanitarian aid scale” in the Gaza Strip. He said that the pause would start every day at 10 am local time, starting on Sunday, and would continue until further notice.

“Whatever the way we choose, we will have to continue allowing minimum humanitarian supply,” said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a statement.

The early army on Sunday carried out for help to Gazawhich included help packages with flour, sugar and canned food, “as part of the continuous efforts to allow and facilitate the entry of help into the gaza strip,” the FDI published on Telegram.

Food experts have warned for months of the risk of famine in Gaza, where Israel has restricted the aid because it says that Hamas deviates the goods to help reinforce their rule, without providing evidence of that statement. The emerging images of Gaza in the last days of Demacred Children have fueled the global criticisms of Israel, including nearby allies, who have asked for the end of war and the humanitarian catastrophe that has generated.

“What is happening in Gaza at this time is terrible. Gaza is now on the verge of a complete catastrophe, and we have been working, during the months, to try to relieve (sic) the sufferings of the Palestinian people,” said French Foreign Minister Jean -noël Barot. Sunday in “Fac The Nation with Margaret Brennan“

The United Nations Food Agency welcomed the steps to relieve help restrictions, but said that the wider fire was needed to ensure that the goods reached all those in need in Gaza.

“Welcome announcement of humanitarian pauses in Gaza to allow our help through,” said the UN AID Chief Tom Fletcher, in X. “In contact with our teams on the ground that will do everything possible to reach as many hungry people as we can in this window.”

The Ministry of Health led by Hamas in Gaza said Sunday that hospitals recorded six new deaths due to malnutrition in the last 24 hours, including two children. The organization said at least 133 people, including 87 children, have died from malnutrition in the Gaza Strip.

Israel said the new measures were taking place while its offensive against Hamas continues in other areas. Before pause, Palestinian health officials in Gaza said at least 27 Palestinians were killed in separate attacks.

“This truce (humanitarian) will not mean anything if it does not become a real opportunity to save lives,” said Dr. Muneer Al-Boursh, general director of the Ministry of Health of Gaza, who asked for an avalanche of medical supplies and other goods to help treat child malnutrition. “Each delay is measured by another funeral.”

International aid sent to Gaza

The trucks loaded with Egypt and Jordan are directed to Gaza in the middle of the “tactical pause” of Israel. The Egyptian red crescent sent more than 100 trucks that transported more than 1,200 tons of food supplies, including 840 tons of flour and 450 tons of varied food baskets, towards the crossing of Shalom de Querem.

The photographers in Gaza captured the first images of trucks that transport help to enter Gaza’s strip through Rafah’s border crossing in Rafah, Egypt.

The Jordan Security Agency published a video on social networks that supposedly shows a line of trucks loaded with gaza.

“In fact, we have 52 tons of humanitarian aid trapped in El-Arish in Egypt, a few kilometers from Gaza,” Barot said Sunday. “So we are exploring all the options to take advantage of the opportunity offered by the Israeli government when opening the heavens of Gaza, but we ask for immediate access, without obstacles and massive by all means of humanitarian aid for those who need it most.”

The UN World Food Program said that it appreciates the moving of Israel and that it has enough food to feed the entire population of 2.1 million Palestinians in Gaza for almost three months. In a statement, he said that a third of the population of Gaza was not eating for days and that almost half a million were lasting hunger conditions.

He said he hopes that Israel’s guarantees for safe corridors “allow an increase in food assistance urgently to reach familiar people without further delay.” However, the PMA reiterated that a high fire is “the only form of humanitarian assistance to reach the entire civilian population in Gaza with critical food supplies in a consistent, predictable, orderly and safe way.”

Israel’s decision to order a pause located in the fighting occurred days after the efforts of high fire between Israel and Hamas seemed to be in doubt. On Friday, Israel and the United States reminded their negotiation teams, blaming Hamas, and Israel said he was considering “alternative options” to leave the fire with the militant group.

Israel says that he is prepared to end war if Hamas surms, disarms and enters exile, something that the group has refused to accept.

Hamas’ senior official Mahmoud Merdawi said that Israel’s tactic change in the humanitarian crisis was equivalent to recognition that there were Palestinians hungry in Gaza and that the measure was destined to improve its international position and not save lives.

He said Israel “will not escape the punishment and inevitably will pay the price of these criminal practices.”

At least 27 Palestinians killed in the last strikes, health officials say

The Awda Hospital in Nuseirat said that the Israeli forces killed at least 11 people and wounded 101 while heading towards a distribution site of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation in downtown Gaza. GHF, who denies participation in any of the violence near his sites, did not immediately respond to a request for comments. The army said he was investigating the report.

In other places, a strike hit a tent that took refuge in a displaced family in the Asdaa area, northwest of the southern city of Khan Younis, killing at least nine people, according to Nasser Hospital. The dead included a father and two children, and another father and his son, the hospital said.

In the city of Gaza, a strike hit an apartment on Saturday night on the western side of the city, killing four people, including two women, said the ambulance and emergency service of the Ministry of Health. In Deir-Al-Balah on early Sunday, a strike in a tent near a desalination plant killed a couple and another woman, according to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs hospital.

The Israeli army had no immediate comments about strikes. However, it generally blames Hamas to the civilian casualties, saying that the Palestinian militant group operates in populated areas.

The Army announced Sunday that two other soldiers were killed in Gaza, carrying the total number of soldiers killed from October 7 from 2023 to 898.

The war began with the attack of Hamas in October 2023 against southern Israel, when the militants killed 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and took 251 hostages. Hamas still has 50 hostages, more than half of them that are believed to be dead.

The retaliation offensive of Israel has killed more than 59,700 Palestinians, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health, directed by Hamas.

Israel again intercepts the ship that transports activists and humanitarian aid

The Israeli army has intercepted an aid ship to Gaza that seeks to break the Israeli blockade of the Palestinian territory, stopping 21 international activists and journalists and confiscate the entire load, including the formula of babies, food and medicine, the Freedom Flotilla coalition said on Sunday.

The coalition that operates the boat of the boat said that the Israeli army “violently” the ship in international waters for about 40 nautical miles from Gaza, cutting the cameras and communication, just before midnight on Saturday.

“All the load was not military, civil and was intended for direct distribution to a population that faces deliberate hunger and medical collapse under the illegal blockade of Israel,” the group said in a statement.

The Israeli army had no immediate comments. The Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs published on X on Sunday that the Navy arrested the ship and took it to the shore.

It was the second ship operated by the coalition that Israel has prevented in recent months from helping Gaza, where food experts have warned for months about the risk of famine. Activist Greta Thunberg was among the 12 activists aboard the Madleen ship When the Israeli army took it in June.
