The Blood of Dawn Floods Gaza… The Sound of Bombings Silences Ceasefire Hopes


The incessant sound of bombing has not ceased in Gaza, where blood flowed at dawn in eastern Khan Younis and in the Nuseirat refugee camp area, quashing hopes for a ceasefire in the devastated territory.

Israeli airstrikes continue as Gaza’s residents face the horrors of bombing and the hardships of displacement, moving from one area to another. Evacuation orders issued by the Israeli army have become almost daily occurrences in various parts of the territory.

Today, Saturday, the Palestinian news agency “Wafa” reported that at least 12 Palestinians, including two children and a woman, were killed early this morning in Israeli attacks in eastern Khan Younis and the Nuseirat refugee camp area in the Gaza Strip.

The agency added that at least 15 others were injured in the attacks.

No Truce in Sight

Amid daily bombings, hopes for a ceasefire among Gaza’s residents are gradually fading, giving way to a deep sense of despair as negotiations in Cairo aimed at reaching a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas in the territory remain uncertain.

On Saturday, a Hamas leader said a delegation from the movement was heading to Cairo but without “participating” in the ceasefire talks.

Yesterday, Friday, the United States announced “progress” in the talks, while Israel continued to bomb areas of the Palestinian territory and southern Lebanon.

After more than ten months of war that has devastated Gaza, killed tens of thousands, and caused a catastrophic humanitarian crisis, Cairo is hosting a new round of negotiations between Israel and Hamas.

A spokesman for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu previously announced that a delegation, including Mossad chief David Barnea and Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar, had arrived in Cairo “to push forward an agreement (for the release) of hostages.”

On Friday, Washington confirmed that CIA Director William Burns had also arrived in Cairo.
