Israeli forces opened fire on Palestinians trying to return to their homes in the northern Gaza Strip, killing at least one person, as Hamas accused Israel of delaying the implementation of the terms of a ceasefire agreement.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel was blocking the return of Palestinians because of Hamas’ delay in releasing a captured civilian woman. The dispute came as a ceasefire between the two sides entered its second week, with four Israeli female soldiers being exchanged for 200 Palestinians on Saturday.
In the occupied West Bank, Israeli soldiers continued a large-scale military operation in and near the city of Jenin, killing at least two people, including a two-year-old girl.
Israeli military attacks on Gaza have killed at least 47,283 Palestinians and wounded 111,472 since October 7, 2023.
At least 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks that day, and more than 200 were captured.
