Following more than a year of displacement, Palestinian families have begun their return to northern Gaza following a ceasefire agreement facilitated by international mediators.
After more than a year of displacement, Palestinian families have begun returning to their homes in northern Gaza. This long-awaited return comes as part of a broader ceasefire agreement brokered by international mediators, following months of intense negotiations.
On Monday morning, thousands of displaced Palestinians started their journey back to northern Gaza. The return was made possible after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Palestinians would be allowed to return home starting Monday.
This decision was part of a deal mediated by Qatar and Egypt, under which the Palestinian militant group Hamas agreed to release three Israeli hostages. As part of the agreement, Israel began easing roadblocks on key routes, allowing an estimated 650,000 displaced Palestinians to return home.
The first crossing point in central Gaza opened at 7:00 a.m. local time, with another opening at 9:00 a.m., enabling the movement of thousands of people. They traveled in cars, trucks, and rickshaws, overloaded with mattresses, food, and the tents that had served as their shelters for over a year in central and southern Gaza.
Scenes of joy and relief were visible as families carrying bags of belongings greeted each other with hugs and selfies while navigating the rubble-filled streets of Gaza City.
The region has been devastated by a 15-month aerial and ground war, leaving much of northern Gaza in ruins. As families begin to rebuild their lives amidst the destruction, this return could mark the beginning of a path toward lasting peace in the region.
