The Israeli military has announced a daily 'tactical' pause in military activity from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. in three areas of Gaza: Al Mawasi, Deir al Balah, and Gaza City. According to IDF spokesperson Avichay Adraee, this suspension is intended to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid. The pause aims to open aid routes and alleviate some of the challenges in distributing essential supplies to the civilian population in these areas. The effectiveness of the pause and its impact on the overall conflict remain to be seen.
