An Israeli attack on a residential building in western Gaza City killed eighteen people and injured numerous more, according to Palestinian station Al Aqsa.

According to reports, the strike targeted a building near the engineers' union.

  2. Humanitarian access: The Rafah crossing will be reopened under international protocols, with "Israel" permitting the daily entry of 600 aid trucks. Provisions include medical supplies, 200,000 tents, and 60,000 caravans for shelter.
  3. Injured evacuation: "Israel" is required to facilitate the evacuation of injured Palestinians for treatment abroad.
  4. Prisoner exchange: The agreement includes the release of 1,000 Palestinian detainees, as well as all women and children under 19 held in Israeli prisons. The deal excludes Hamas fighters involved in Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.
  5. Airspace and hospitals: Hostile aircraft must vacate Gaza's airspace for up to 10 hours daily, and all hospitals in Gaza are to be rehabilitated, with field hospitals and medical teams allowed entry.

Smotrich issues ultimatum to Netanyahu over ceasefire with Gaza

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich on Wednesday delivered a list of demands to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, setting conditions for his continued participation in the Israeli leadership in light of the regime's approval of a ceasefire agreement with Gaza.

According to "Israel's" Channel 7, the document submitted by Smotrich calls for a "clear commitment to completing the strategic goal of toppling Hamas' rule in Gaza" and a "resumption of full-scale military operations at the end of the 42-day truce period, should Hamas' rule persist." The document also asks for "increased military force in the next phase of the fighting, utilizing additional means, and significantly reducing humanitarian aid to Gaza."

Smotrich's demands go further, including calls for "permanent control over strategic areas in the Gaza Strip" and "advancing measures to encourage migration from Gaza."

Structural changes within "Israel's" security and military institutions were also proposed, with Smotrich demanding the replacement of the Chief of Staff and military commanders, as well as the "realignment of operational plans to sustain the fighting."
