A four-day humanitarian pause has been agreed upon in the 48-day Palestine-Israel conflict, though the exact start time remains unannounced. On Wednesday, the Israeli cabinet approved a deal in which Hamas will release 50 women and children held as hostages in Gaza in exchange for a temporary halt in fighting, according to the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The agreement will allow hundreds of humanitarian, medical, and fuel-aid trucks to enter all parts of the Gaza Strip, aiming to alleviate the dire conditions faced by residents. This development marks a significant step towards reducing the immediate humanitarian crisis and providing essential support to those affected by the ongoing conflict.
