The Israeli army said on X(formerly Twitter) that there will be a short break in the fighting today in the southern part of Gaza.
“A temporary stop in fighting will happen today in the Rafah area until 2:00pm [12:00 GMT]. This is to let more humanitarian aid come in,” it says.
Another message in Arabic said that the break would happen in the El Geneina neighborhood.
These breaks happen a lot and have been named in different areas of Gaza. Not long ago, Rafah was a pretty safe place where there was not much fighting.
Since the truce with Hamas ended last Friday, the IDF has been attacking the area more often.
