Northern Gaza has remained calm since the ceasefire took effect, with no signs of conflict reported.
Since the ceasefire agreement took effect on Sunday, Beit Hanoun, a town in northern Gaza, has experienced no signs of conflict. The area has remained calm, with no sounds of gunfire or explosions reported by China Media Group reporters on the ground.
At 11:15 local time, the Israeli military ordered a ceasefire, marking the beginning of the truce brokered by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States after a year of mediation.
The first phase of the ceasefire, set to last for six weeks, includes the release of 33 Israeli hostages in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners. However, the ceasefire’s start was delayed by nearly three hours after Hamas missed an 8:30 deadline to provide the list of the first three hostages to be released. The delay was attributed to technical reasons, and the list was eventually submitted.
Hamas' military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, confirmed its commitment to the ceasefire, along with all Palestinian resistance groups. Meanwhile, Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, emphasized their commitment to securing the release of all Israeli captives and achieving military objectives.
