Daunting and difficult task to get bodies out of Gaza
There are signs of relief among Israelis and Palestinians with this ceasefire deal.
On the Israeli front, they are happy to have the living captives out of Gaza and back home. And now comes the tricky part – transferring the remains of the captives who are deceased inside Gaza.
Family members say they want the remains of their loved ones, but there is nothing in the truce agreement that stipulates when they are to be handed over.
Officials speaking anonymously in Israeli media say Prime Minister Netanyahu knew for months that it was going to be a daunting and difficult task to get the bodies out of Gaza, and it could take more than just a few days.
But the general mood is quite elated in Israel now that this war on Gaza is over.
Challenge of getting aid to northern Gaza – there are no roads left
Aid trucks are trickling in but are only limited to the central and southern parts of the Strip. We’re not seeing much in the north. There is a key factor limiting the entry of aid trucks into Gaza City: the destroyed infrastructure.
There are no roads here. For us, driving around it is very hard. It takes a long time simply because there are no roads left. The Israeli military has destroyed every essential storage warehouse, so even if aid trucks get in, it will be extremely difficult to store it.
The eastern side of the Strip is controlled by the Israeli army. Soldiers have moved to a line demarcated by the ceasefire. People are staying away from that area because it’s very dangerous with quadcopters, tanks and armoured vehicles deployed.
Earlier, people who tried to go to their homes in the east of Gaza City and in southern Khan Younis were shot and killed by Israeli troops. At least nine Palestinians were killed despite the ceasefire.
French NGO urges Western hospitals to treat Gaza’s wounded
The head of Medecins du Monde, a French humanitarian organisation, has urged French and other Western hospitals to accept wounded Palestinians from Gaza for treatment, saying thousands will die within weeks without urgent medical evacuation.
Jean-Francois Corty told France Inter, the French public radio broadcaster, about 20,000 injured people need immediate care, but Gaza’s healthcare system has been completely destroyed.
One killed in Khan Younis drone strike
We reported earlier that Israel launched a drone attack on Gaza’s southern Khan Younis. Now, medical sources confirm the bombing killed at least one Palestinian.
It was the latest Israeli army attack on Tuesday, with at least nine Palestinians killed despite the US-brokered ceasefire.
