Israel continues to restrict entry of temporary shelters into Gaza

Описание: There are less than two weeks left until the end of the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.
Palestinians have had some respite from the Israeli military's relentless bombardment.
But after 15 months of war destroyed 70% of the buildings in the strip, most families have nowhere to live.

Convoys of trucks carrying mobile homes and tents are stuck on the Egyptian side of the Rafah border crossing, in the south of the strip.
Under the ceasefire, Israel had agreed to allow 60,000 mobile homes and 200,000 tents into Gaza.
But only a fraction of the number of tents have been allowed in and none of the mobile homes.
Israel is also blocking the entry of bulldozers and heavy equipment needed to clear the rubble.
It considers them “dual purpose” items which Hamas could weaponise.

Meanwhile, an Israeli negotiating team is heading to Egypt for talks.
There have been questions as to whether the ceasefire will hold, with Hamas accusing Israel of repeatedly violating its terms.
A day ago, an Israeli drone strike killed three Palestinian policemen in Rafah.
Yet the US envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff says he believes the deal will absolutely continue for a second stage.

Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud is monitoring developments outside the Indonesian Hospital in Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza, Palestine.

Caroline Seguin is an emergency coordinator for Doctors Without Borders. She highlights the severe destruction in Gaza, with hospitals heavily damaged and health services critically compromised.
