Just over a week after US President Donald Trump strong-armed Israel and Hamas into an agreement that halted the war, Palestinians in Gaza are beginning to put the pieces of their lives back together.

Sources say the 28-year-old was killed by members of Israel-linked ‘militia’ fighting Hamas in the Sabra neighbourhood.

Israel has launched a new ground offensive into Gaza City designed to dismantle Hamas infrastructure and warned residents to leave and head south.

Israel has accused Hamas of attacking Israeli forces in southern Gaza with the military carrying out airstrikes in the city of Rafah, the first major test of the US-brokered ceasefire.

At least 27 people have been killed in fierce clashes between Hamas security forces and armed members of the Dughmush family in Gaza City, in one of the most violent internal confrontations since the end of major Israeli operations in the enclave.

Returning to Gaza City after a cease-fire, Palestinians will face an immense challenge to rebuild their lives in the city that’s been left in ruins after two years of war.

The Palestinian embassy in Egypt says the Rafah border crossing will reopen Monday for people returning to the Gaza Strip, where the Palestinian death toll has surpassed 68,000.

The U.N. said on Friday 560 tonnes of food had entered Gaza per day on average since a ceasefire took effect but convoys were struggling to reach famine-struck Gaza city due to war-damaged roads and continued closures of key northern aid routes.
