Israeli airstrikes on homes in the Gaza Strip killed at least 17 Palestinians, health officials said Tuesday. Earlier strikes in Gaza killed at least 18 people, including two women and four children, according to local health officials, who said one woman was pregnant and the baby died as well.
The 42-day first phase of the ceasefire should see a total of 33 hostages returned from Gaza and hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and detainees released.
What began as a battle between Israel and Hamas morphed into a much wider regional conflict that has reshaped much of the Middle East.
Gaza's Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and militants, reported Thursday that at least 120 dead bodies had been recovered and registered at hospitals across the Gaza Strip. The overall Palestinian death toll in Gaza exceeds 47,000 people, according to the Health Ministry.
Israeli troops have pulled back to the edges of Gaza, the first hostages have been released and many Palestinians have returned to what remains of their homes in the first few days of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal.
