Dozens of Palestinian women and teenagers were released from Israeli prisons this week as part of a deal between Israel and Hamas to pause the war in Gaza.

The area has been reeling following an Israeli military plan that legal experts have described to Middle East Eye as "genocidal" and aimed at the permanent forced displacement of northern Gaza's population, as settlers plan for post-war colonisation of the Palestinian enclave.

Le co-fondateur de la société française de cryptomonnaie Ledger, David Balland, a été libéré mercredi après avoir été enlevé la veille à son domicile du Cher (Centre-Val de Loire) et séquestré, a déclaré le parquet de Paris jeudi.

The Israeli military said Wednesday its soldiers killed an alleged militant in Gaza whom it said posed a threat to its forces, as the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas stretched into a fourth day. It appeared to be the first time since the ceasefire began Sunday that the Israeli military said it struck targets in Gaza.
