Israel announces 'tactical pauses' in parts of Gaza | DW News

The Israeli military has announced it will implement ‘tactical pauses’ in its operation against the militant group Hamas in a part of southern Gaza, following October’s terror attacks. It says the 11-hour windows will allow more humanitarian supplies into the war-zone during daytime hours. The army says the daily pauses will take place from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm until further notice. The aim is to get more trucks through the Kerem Shalom crossing, the main entry point for aid, and then onto the Salah al-Din highway, the key north-south road. The United Nations says the amount of support entering the Gaza Strip is still not sufficient for the civilian population.
