“What Israel describes as ‘humanitarian pauses’ are, in fact, limited and seen as unilateral suspensions of military activities that usually last for a few hours and are confined to select areas,” Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum reports from Deir el-Balah, Gaza.
“Now these pauses, as we have seen, lack international oversight or any sort of coordination with humanitarian agencies.
“Right now, I can hear the sound of Israeli fighter jets in the sky.”
He adds that medical reports by the Gaza Health Ministry suggest that 43 Palestinians have been killed today, with the number is expected to rise.
