People walked amongst the rubble in the city, once a hub for displaced families fleeing Israel’s bombardment elsewhere in the enclave, as they assessed the damage to their homes. Others found human remains amid the debris of buildings and streets. Sunday marked the start of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. The ceasefire is set to pause the fighting after 15 months of war and see the release of dozens of hostages held by the militants in the Gaza Strip and hundreds of Palestinians imprisoned by Israel. Brokered by mediators the United States, Qatar and Egypt in months of indirect talks between the warring sides, the ceasefire is the second truce achieved in the devastating conflict. The Hamas-led October 7, 2023, attack on southern Israel killed some 1,200 people and left some 250 others captive. Nearly 100 hostages remain in Gaza. Israel responded with an offensive that has killed more than 46,000 Palestinians, according to local health officials AP video shot by Mohammad Hajjar Production by Wafaa Shurafa =========================================================== Clients are reminded to adhere to all listed restrictions and to check the terms of their licence agreements.
