Overview
- The Israel Defense Forces will pause operations from 10 am to 8 pm daily in Gaza City, Deir al-Balah and Muwasi to allow humanitarian aid deliveries.
- Designated secure routes for convoys have been put in place alongside multinational airdrops delivering flour, sugar, canned food and medicine across the enclave.
- Gaza Health Ministry reports at least 127 deaths from malnutrition, including 85 children, and warns nearly half a million people endure famine-like conditions.
- Ceasefire negotiations were suspended after Israel and the United States recalled their negotiating teams, accusing Hamas of rejecting a deal.
- Persistent truck shortages have limited entries to about 69 aid vehicles per day, far below the UN’s 500 to 600 trucks needed daily, making the pause the most significant concession since May.
