Des Palestiniens se rassemblent pour recevoir l’aide fournie par l’UNRWA, y compris des fournitures alimentaires, après qu’Israël a déclaré avoir cessé l’entrée de l’aide humanitaire dans la bande de Gaza, devant un centre de distribution, au camp de réfugiés de Jabalia dans le nord de la bande de Gaza

Overview

  • Israel has suspended the entry of humanitarian aid and goods into Gaza, citing Hamas's rejection of a U.S.-proposed truce extension until mid-April.
  • The United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has urged for the immediate resumption of aid and the release of all hostages to prevent a return to conflict.
  • Hamas has condemned the Israeli decision as a violation of the ceasefire agreement and labeled it a 'war crime,' demanding international intervention.
  • The U.S. has announced an expedited delivery of $4 billion in military aid to Israel, intensifying international focus on the ongoing crisis.
  • The ceasefire agreement, initially brokered in January, remains in jeopardy as both sides disagree on the implementation of its second phase, which includes prisoner exchanges and further de-escalation.
