Gaza, Israel and ceasefire
Digest more
President Donald Trump voiced support for Israel's actions after the U.S. ally carried out strikes across the enclave and traded accusations of truce violations with Hamas.
The Israeli military said on Wednesday that it will abide by a ceasefire accord in Gaza, as health officials in the enclave said airstrikes had killed 104 people, with both sides trading blame for violations of the deal.
We ended the war in Gaza and really, on a much bigger basis, created peace. And I think it's going to be a lasting peace, hopefully an everlasting peace. After years of suffering and bloodshed, the war in Gaza is over.
Ultimately, the survivability of the much-vaunted ceasefire deal, as well as the wider, 20-point Trump peace plan for Gaza, depends heavily on the continuing engagement of the current White House.
More than 24,000 tons of UN aid has reached Gaza since the start of a ceasefire earlier this month, a UN official said on Thursday while calling for NGOs to be allowed to assist in its distribution.
Hamas has handed over the remains of two more bodies it says are former hostages to Israel via the Red Cross, the Israeli prime minister's office said.
