Overview

  • Israel confirms an agreement to repatriate the remains of eight hostages presumed dead, with the first four bodies set to arrive on February 20, 2025.
  • Six living Israeli hostages are scheduled for release on Saturday, marking the continuation of a phased exchange agreement with Hamas.
  • The ceasefire, now in its second month, remains tenuous with reports of daily violations and ongoing uncertainty about its longevity.
  • Gaza's humanitarian crisis persists with severe shortages of water, electricity, and medical supplies, as 900,000 displaced Palestinians return to devastated homes.
  • Palestinian society in Gaza shows resilience, with youth and women taking on expanded roles in rebuilding efforts and education resuming under challenging conditions.
