Significant Events

• Tens of thousands of Palestinian residents headed back to the largely ruined northern Gaza Strip on the end of the week as a ceasefire mediated by the US came into effect. The remaining 48 individuals—some 20 of them considered living—are to be freed by the start of the week.
• Issues linger over leadership in the region as Israel's military slowly withdraw and whether Hamas will disarm, as required in the proposed deal. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who unilaterally ended a ceasefire in March, hinted that the country might restart its military campaign if Hamas fails to give up its arms.
• The United Nations was given the green light by the government to begin distributing increased humanitarian assistance into the Gaza Strip from the weekend. This assistance will include significant amounts that have been stored in adjacent states such as the Kingdom of Jordan and the Arab Republic of Egypt as relief coordinators were waiting for permission from Israeli forces to resume their work.
• An official the spokesman reported to reporters on the end of the week that fuel, healthcare materials, and other critical materials have started flowing through the crossing point. Agency staff are calling for Israel to allow access through additional entry points and ensure protected transit for humanitarian staff and residents who are coming back to areas in Gaza that were under heavy fire just a short time ago.
• The leader the head of state censured the Israeli government on the weekend for conducting raids during the night on public installations that the health authority said resulted in at least one death. "Once again, southern Lebanon has been the focus of a egregious Israeli aggression against non-military facilities—unjustifiably or rationale," the president said.
• Israel disclosed a roster of the individuals in custody that it intends to free as part of the truce deal reached with Hamas. Out of the 250 detainees, 15 will be let go in eastern Jerusalem, a hundred to the Palestinian territory, and one hundred thirty-five will be sent abroad. Initially, when representatives of the group presented a list of suggested detainees to be released to mediators in the country, they requested the release of high-profile Palestinian political figures such as the figure. Yet, Netanyahu's office stated it will not agree to release him.
