US, regional envoys press to keep the truce on track.

Overview

  • Israel said two soldiers were killed Sunday by anti-tank fire near Rafah, triggering dozens of retaliatory airstrikes across Gaza.
  • Palestinian sources reported between 14 and 44 fatalities from the strikes, figures that vary by source and cannot be independently verified.
  • Both Israel and Hamas issued statements overnight recommitting to the ceasefire, with the IDF warning it will respond to any further violations.
  • Humanitarian deliveries were paused on Sunday, then Israeli officials said Monday that relief trucks would again move through Kerem Shalom and other crossings.
  • Fresh incidents were reported Monday in Gaza City’s Tuffah/Shejaiya area and ZDF said a partner-company employee was killed in Deir al-Balah, which the Israeli army said it is reviewing, while US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner were expected in Israel with Vice President JD Vance possibly to follow.
