The US has informed Israel that if it resumes its ground offensive to dismantle Hamas in Gaza, it must operate with greater precision to avoid “significant further displacement” of Palestinian civilians in the southern part of the Strip, the Associated Press reports.

Israel said Tuesday that Hamas had released 12 more hostages, including 10 Israeli citizens and two Thai nationals.

Warning Israel that it is expected to allow humanitarian aid to enter the Gaza Strip even after the current ceasefire with Hamas is over, the US on Tuesday sent the first of three military planes to Egypt with medicines, food, and winter items for Gaza civilians, Axios reports. The other two US planes will arrive in Egypt in the coming days.

“Hamas terrorists” violated a ceasefire agreement on Tuesday by attacking Israeli forces in the northern Gaza Strip, but efforts were underway to extend the truce, Israeli sources said.

Israel’s military said Monday that 11 hostages, including two mothers and nine children, were en route to Israel after being released by Hamas, seen as a terrorist group by the West.

Fourteen Israeli citizens who were taken hostage in Gaza were released by the Palestinian terror group Hamas and brought back into Israel by the Israel Defense Force (IDF) as confirmed by Israel on Sunday evening. Additionally, three Thai citizens were also released through the Rafah crossing on Sunday night.

In the recent hostage releases by Hamas, despite the explicit stipulation in the details of the release deal that families cannot be separated, several families have been split up in the first two batches. This action by Hamas is seen as a form of “psychological warfare” and a violation of the ceasefire agreement.

On Saturday night, over 100,000 Israelis gathered in what is now referred to as “Hostage Square” outside the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. The assembly marked the “50 Days of Hell” since Hamas’ attack on Israel on November 7, known as the “Black Sabbath,” during which the terrorist organization abducted approximately 240 hostages.

A Gaza hostage release deal was back on track Saturday night after a row with Hamas over aid supplies to the north of the Palestinian enclave was resolved following mediation by Qatar and Egypt, several sources confirmed.

Exhausted but hopeful, twenty-four former hostages enjoyed their first Jewish Sabbath in freedom since Hamas released them Friday, ending a near seven-week ordeal.

The first group of Israeli hostages have been released by Hamas and taken by the International Committee of the Red Cross in ambulances from Khan Younis in southern Gaza to the Rafah crossing with Egypt in preparation for their transfer to Israel, Israeli sources said Friday.

A tense ceasefire between Israel and Hamas began in the Gaza Strip early Friday ahead of a long-anticipated release of hostages.

On Wednesday, fighter jets from the Israeli Air Force reportedly targeted two sites in the Damascus area, which reportedly targeted Lebanon’s Hezbollah Terrorist Organization, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).

Israel achieved a historic milestone by deploying its “Iron Beam” laser defense system for the first time in operational use during the conflict with Hamas, according to Israeli Channel 14 on Monday.

On Thursday, Hezbollah unleashed a substantial rocket barrage on northern Israel, marking one of the most extensive attacks from Lebanon since October 7, just hours before a ceasefire was to go into effect.
