The 49th day of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip witnessed the entry into force of the humanitarian truce at seven o’clock local time.
Today, the process of implementing the terms of the agreement included the handover to the Palestinian resistance in Gaza of 13 Israeli detainees, in addition to foreign workers outside the agreement, namely 10 Thai and Filipino workers outside the framework of the armistice agreement, in exchange for Israel’s release of 39 women and children. What was noteworthy was the strict Israeli measures that prohibited Palestinians from expressing joy in the West Bank. Humanitarian aid was brought in through the Rafah crossing in accordance with the agreement.
