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.
