4-day pause in hostilities underway, 200 aid trucks set to be allowed into besieged Gaza Strip, APA reports citing CBC.
Israel and Hamas began a four-day truce on Friday morning with Palestinian militants set to release a first group of 13 Israeli women and child hostages later in the day, the first break in a war that has devastated the besieged Gaza enclave.
The truce went into effect at 7 a.m. local time and involves a comprehensive ceasefire in north and south Gaza, followed by the release of some of the more than 200 hostages taken Oct. 7, when Hamas led a surprise attack inside Israel, mediators in Qatar said.
