GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Shifa Hospital was once the cornerstone of the health system in the Gaza Strip. Now, after 21 months of war and two major Israeli raids, it barely functions.

Israel is ready to negotiate a lasting deal to end the war with Hamas in Gaza when a temporary halt to hostilities begins in the Palestinian territory, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday.

The rise of Izz al-Din al-Haddad in the chain of command suggests the group will hold firm to its position demanding a total end to the war before releasing all remaining hostages.

Additionally, soldiers from the IDF's Nahal Brigade, under the 162nd Division, operated in Gaza's Daraj Tuffah. The IDF and Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) conducted an airstrike, killing Hamas Naval Force commander Ramzi Ramadan Abd Ali Saleh in the north Gaza Strip last Monday,

One of the founders of Hamas, who was also one of the planners of its onslaught of October 7, 2023, was killed in an airstrike in Gaza City on Friday night, the Israel Defense Forces announced Saturday.
