"Thousands of displaced Palestinians have begun returning to their abandoned and mostly destroyed homes, as the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas takes hold, with Israeli forces withdrawing from parts of Gaza. Families started moving from western residential areas on Friday back towards Gaza City's main districts, areas from which they were previously forced to flee. Several Israeli military brigades and divisions have pulled out from central Gaza regions as well. At the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza, families have begun travelling northward, though many remain waiting to enter areas in the Netzarim Corridor, where Israeli forces were stationed."
"Concerning developments include heightened activity of Israeli drones, fighter jets, and warships since early morning. Multiple attacks were reported in the morning at locations where people were gathering to return home. A huge procession of displaced Palestinians moved northward through dust-filled roads towards Gaza City, the territory's largest urban centre, which had experienced intense Israeli military operations just days earlier."
A ceasefire between Israel and Hamas took effect at noon local time, prompting partial Israeli troop withdrawals from central and western Gaza. Thousands of displaced Palestinians began returning to largely destroyed homes and moved back toward Gaza City's main districts. Several Israeli brigades and divisions pulled out from key areas, while some families waited at Nuseirat camp to enter the Netzarim Corridor until the final tank left. Despite the ceasefire, Israeli drones, fighter jets, and warships showed heightened activity and multiple morning attacks occurred at return sites. Prisoner exchanges and phased troop suspension are part of the agreement.
