Israel says it wants to suspend military activities partly for humanitarian purposes
The Israeli army has announced that it will temporarily suspend its military activities in some areas of the Gaza Strip to provide aid. This would apply every day until Thursday between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. in certain neighborhoods of the cities of Rafah and Deir al-Balah, a military spokesperson told X.
The interruptions in military activities should also serve to allow civilians to safely reach the places where aid is being distributed.
Humanitarian aid for the distressed Palestinian population in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip is one of the points of contention between Israel and international aid organizations. The organizations often complain that food, water and other essential goods do not reach those seeking help due to bureaucratic obstacles. Israel, which controls the border crossing to Gaza with Egypt, denies that it unnecessarily keeps the convoys waiting at the border.

Eleven killed in Israeli airstrike on refugee camp
At least 11 Palestinians have been killed in a suspected Israeli airstrike on a refugee camp in Rafah, the southernmost city in the Gaza Strip.

According to authorities, some refugee tents outside the Emirati hospital in the Tal al-Sultan neighborhood were hit. The victims included a paramedic and a nurse from the hospital.
About 1.5 million people are currently crammed into Rafah, which is located on the border with Egypt. Most of them fled the war from other parts of the closed coastal strip. They usually live in tents without proper sanitation or health care.

Sources: partial agreement on Gaza ceasefire
The parties negotiating a truce in the Gaza Strip have agreed on important points, Egyptian security sources told Reuters. The talks will resume in Cairo on Sunday.
The sources say an agreement has been reached on the duration of the truce and the exchange of hostages and prisoners. Other issues are still being discussed, such as the return of residents to northern Gaza.
The deaths of about a hundred Palestinians in Gaza during the delivery of aid this week did not delay negotiations, the sources said. The conversations would have been stepped up.
