Israel Pauses Gaza War To Enable Aid Flow

Israel bombarded Gaza on Monday, and witnesses reported explosions in the beleaguered territory’s south, but violence had calmed by the second day of an army-declared pause to allow supplies to flow.

The relative peace came after Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dissolved his war cabinet, highlighting the country’s internal divisions.

According to David Mencer, a spokesman for the prime minister’s office, the body was disbanded after centrist leader Benny Gantz resigned, which prompted the formation of a war cabinet to join a unity government.

Mencer stated that the war cabinet’s responsibilities would be taken up by the pre-existing security cabinet, which had approved the war cabinet’s recommendations.

The move was intended to deflect pressure from far-right legislators seeking greater decision-making power.

The midday pause for assistance supplies along a southern Gaza corridor, imposed by Israel’s military over the weekend, looked to be holding on Monday.

The health ministry in Hamas-ruled Gaza reported 10 deaths in the preceding 24 hours, one of the lowest daily counts since the conflict began.
