feb 14, 2025 - Israel Blocks Entry of Homes into Gaza

Description:

Hundreds of thousands of forcibly displaced Palestinians are living among the rubble of their destroyed homes, waiting for Israel to allow entry of prefabricated temporary homes stuck at the border with Egypt, as promised under the terms of the ceasefire.

Hamas says it will release three captives from Gaza on Saturday as scheduled following talks with ceasefire mediators Egypt and Qatar.

Israel has said Hamas must release three living captives or Israeli forces will return to war in the Palestinian territory.

A senior UN official has likened the devastation in the Gaza Strip to “a massive earthquake” and said efforts must be made to avoid a continuing “humanitarian catastrophe”.
