Israel and Hamas agree Gaza ceasefire

Finally after 11 days of intense hostilities that cost 232 Palestinians in Gaza and 12 lives in Israel, there is an announcement of  a ceasefire by Israel and Hamas, as reported by Al Jazeera on 21 May 2021

Israel’s security cabinet on Thursday said it voted unanimously in favour of a “mutual and unconditional” Gaza truce proposed by mediator Egypt, but added that the hour of implementation had yet to be agreed upon.

The truce is likely to bring an end some of the fiercest fighting since 2014, which has caused widespread destruction in Gaza and halted much of daily life in Israel.

No respite in Israel-Palestine Conflict in Gaza

There is no respite for the Palestinians in the Gaza strip as the Israeli military launched another series of air raids on the Gaza Strip early on Monday, hours after its caretaker Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the attacks on the Palestinian enclave would rage on, reports Al Jazeera

Explosions rocked Gaza City from north to south in a bombardment that was heavier, wider and lasted longer than the air raids that killed at least 42 Palestinians and wounded dozens more on Sunday.

At least 212 people, including 61 children, have been killed in Gaza since the latest violence began a week ago. Some 1,500 Palestinians were also wounded.

‘What did my son do to die like this?,’ he pleaded, ‘What was his mistake? He is 11 months-old, what did he do?’ 

Tiny Omar is the youngest casualty of the conflict in Gaza and Israel, which last night, threatened to escalate. He died after an Israeli airstrike on Hamas militants in Gaza.

There were a number of heavy strikes on Gaza overnight, since Israel killed Ahmed Jabari, the military leader of the Islamist group that controls the territory, on Wednesday.

Israel's army tweeted: "Before action, the IDF disperses warning leaflets calling all civilians to evacuate the area. This happened [on Thursday]."

At least 18 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed in Israeli airstrikes, including children, and three Israelis have been killed by Palestinian rocket fire into southern Israel.
