Deir Al-Balah, Gaza Strip- An Israeli aerial here destroyed a three -story house in the city of Gaza on Saturday, causing the death of 10 people, half of them minors, while the Arab mediators try to restart a cessation of fire.
At least 49 people have died in the last 24 hours due to Israeli attacks, according to Health authorities.
Among those killed in the air attack, held in the early morning hours in a neighborhood of the west of the city of Gaza, there were three women and five children, according to the Shifa hospital, which received the bodies.
The Israeli army said it folded a Hamas fighter and that the structure from which it operated collapsed. He added that the collapse was subject to review.
“There is no member of the resistance to each other,” said Saed al-Kahour, who lost his family in the attack. “From 1 until now they have been taking out the remains of children, women and the elderly.” The man was standing among the rubble, under a inclined roof.
Three other people died in the Shati refugee camp, on the coast of the city of Gaza.
Hamas said on Saturday that he had sent a high -level delegation to Cairo to try to get the cessation of fire, suspended last month by Israeli bombings, resumed its course.
Israel has promised to continue the war until it achieves the return of all hostages and that is destroyed or disarmed and sent into exile. He states that he will occupy parts of Gaza indefinitely and will implement the proposal of US President Donald Trump to relocate the population in other countries, which has been widely rejected internationally.
Hamas has said that he will only release the dozens of hostages that he still maintains in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners, a complete withdrawal of Israel and a ceasefire of the durable fire, as established in the agreement, currently extinct, which was reached in January.
Hamas pointed out that his delegation will analyze with Egyptian authorities the vision of the group to end the war, which also includes reconstruction.
Earlier this week, other Hamas authorities arrived in Cairo to discuss a proposal that would include a truce of 5 to 7 years and the release of all the remaining hostages, authorities said.
Egypt and Qatar develop the proposal, which would include the gradual withdrawal of the Israeli forces of Gaza and the liberation of Palestinian prisoners, according to an Egyptian official and one who Hamas who spoke under the condition of anonymity, because they are not authorized to inform the media.
The Israeli block continues
Israel has maintained its blockade of almost two months in Gaza, even though help groups warn that supplies are running out.
On Friday, the World food Program said that its food reserves in Gaza had been exhausted, ending an important source of livelihood for hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. He pointed out that the dozens of charities he supports will run out of food in the next few days.
Around 80% of the population of Gaza, composed of more than two million people, depends mainly on charities to obtain food because other sources have closed for the Israeli block, according to the UN.
“Meanwhile, about 3,000 trucks from the United Nations Agency for the Palestine Refugee Population in the Middle East (UNRWA), with help that could save lives, are ready to enter Gaza,” the agency on social networks said. “The siege must stop.”
On Saturday, Hamas called on Trump’s government to immediately reverse his decision according to which the UN Agency for Palestinian refugees is not immune to legal demands, qualifying such a decision as a dangerous step of the close ally of Israel.
The Israeli offensive has caused the death of more than 51,000 Palestinians, mainly women and children, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health, which does not indicate how many of the deceased were combatants or civilians. Israel claims to have dejected about 20,000 militiamen, without providing evidence.
The war began when militiamen headed by Hamas broke into southern Israel on October 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people, mainly civilians, and kidnapping 251. The militiamen still have 59 hostages, 24 of which it is believed that they are still alive, after the majority were released in ceases of cessation to the fire or other agreements.
