Good morning Middle East Eye readers,

Here are the latest developments in Israel's war on Gaza:

  • Israel announces a 10-hour pause in military operations in three areas across the Gaza Strip, including al-Mawasi, Deir al-Balah, and Gaza City. Meanwhile, at least 43 Palestinians have been reported killed in Gaza by Israeli attacks since dawn on Sunday. 

  • On Sunday morning, Israel said that it had airdropped humanitarian aid into the besieged enclave, following weeks of mounting international pressure to allow the unrestricted delivery of food and vital supplies to the territory amid the worsening hunger crisis. Several organisations and international groups have warned that airdropping aid could endanger civilian lives.

  • Hamas has condemned Israel's decision to airdrop aid, saying it "represents a blatant policy aimed at managing starvation, not ending it, and at establishing forced facts on the ground under the fire of bombardment and hunger."

  • The Ministry of Health in Gaza said that six Palestinians, including two children, died in the past 24 hours as a result of starvation and malnutrition.

  • The Handala flotilla arrived at the Ashdod port following the Israeli raid on the ship.
