In this Al Jazeera report, correspondents Nour Odeh and Hind Khoudary discuss recent developments in the Gaza ceasefire. The Israeli army is conducting a large scale military operation in northern Gaza to retrieve the body of Ran Gvili, claimed to be their last captive. This is nothing but a pretext to kill more Palestinians. Since the supposed ceasefire, Israelis have killed more than 500 Palestinians in Gaza for the most benign reasons possible.
This follows information provided by Hamas on the location of the remains in a cemetery. The operation is delaying the reopening of the Rafah crossing, which was expected as part of a US backed ceasefire deal. The return of all Israeli captives remains is a key component of the agreement, with Hamas having handed over 37 bodies so far in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. Aid groups criticize Israel for restricting supplies into Gaza, noting no aid trucks have entered since the standstill, and emphasize that reopening Rafah could increase the flow of desperately needed humanitarian aid.
