Israel, Hamas ceasefire accord followed by airstrikes on Gaza, 7 Gazooks toes up
[GEO.TV] Israel intensified strikes on Gaza hours after a ceasefire and hostage release deal was announced, residents and authorities in the Palestinian enclave said, and mediators sought to quell fighting ahead of the truce's start on Sunday.

The complex ceasefire accord between Israel and Hamas, which controls Gaza, emerged on Wednesday after months of mediation by Qatar, Egypt and the US and 15 months of bloodshed that devastated the coastal territory and inflamed the Middle East.

The Times of Israel adds:
The Hamas-run civil defense agency in Gaza says that at least seven people were killed in fresh strikes overnight, hours before Israel’s cabinet is set to vote on a hostage-ceasefire deal with the Hamas terror group.

“Our crew retrieved 5 dead and more than 10 injured from under the rubble of a house… that was bombed by the Israeli army in the Al-Rimal area west of Gaza City,” the agency says in a statement.

It adds it had retrieved the bodies of two more people killed in a strike at “the Al-Sha’biya intersection in the center of Gaza City.”
