Israel warned by US over hostilities return

The US diplomat Antony Blinken has told Israel to make sure that the people in Gaza are safe before they start any new military action.

Blinken is in the Middle East to talk with leaders. He met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said again that he will free all hostages and get rid of Hamas.

More people who were kept as captives will be let go on Thursday. They will be exchanged for Palestinian prisoners. This is happening while there is a break in the fighting in Gaza, which has been going on for seven days.

Discussions are still happening about making the truce longer. Egypt and Qatar are working together to add two more days to the truce.

Two people shoot at a bus stop in Jerusalem and three people died. It happened during busy time. Hamas said the people who attacked were its members and were killed by the police.

It happened one day after two young boys from Palestine, aged 8 and 14, were shot and killed by the Israeli army in the West Bank city of Jenin.

On 7 October, Hamas attacked Israel and killed 1,200 people and took about 240 people as hostages.
Since then, Gaza’s Hamas-controlled health ministry says over 14,800 people have been killed in Israel’s revenge attack, including around 6,000 children.
