Iran-backed Iraqi militia says it joins truce with Israel, will reduce attacks on US forces​

The Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades – a separate group from the Lebanese Hezbollah – announces it has joined the truce between Hamas and Israel, and that it will halt attacks against Israel until the end of the truce period.

…

In their statement, the Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades further announce a “reduction in the pace of escalation” of attacks against US forces in Iraq and Syria. A string of at least 73 attacks have been carried out by Iran and Iran-backed paramilitary groups on US and coalition bases in Iraq and Syria since October 17, according to CNN.

So who is it they really want out of prison? They are getting 150 of their people back who deserve to be in prison for crimes they committed. What the heck does it matter if they release someone today or tomorrow.. they are getting all 150 as long as they honor the deal of releasing the hostages.

The reason they wanted families released together is likely to not traumatize the kids any more than they already have.

Palestinians in prison are not going to be traumatized if they stay in one more day. It's all just games they play.

Top Biden aide: There’s ‘reason to believe’ a US citizen will be released from Gaza today​

US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan says there is “reason to believe” an American citizen will be released from Gaza today.

“We have reason to believe one of those Americans will be released today, but until we see her out safely from Gaza, in the hands of the authorities and ultimately in the hands of her family, then we won’t be certain,” Sullivan tells NBC.

When asked whether he is referring to the potential release of 4-year-old Avigail Idan today, Sullivan talks in more general terms about the timeline.

“We are hopeful that Avigail will be released. We think it’s long past time that this little girl, who just celebrated her fourth birthday, is back home with her family. Of course she tragically lost her parents in this vicious, brutal terrorist attack on October 7,” he says.

“I’m not in a position sitting here at this moment to confirm that,” he says.

Summary of the day so far …​

It has just gone 4.30pm in Gaza City and in Tel Aviv. Here are the latest headlines …

  • Prison authorities in Israel announced early on Sunday that they had released 39 Palestinian prisoners after Hamas freed 13 Israelis and four Thai nationals in the latest stage of a four-day ceasefire. Television footage showed hostages on the Egyptian side of the Rafah border crossing after leaving Gaza, as Hamas handed over the captives to the International Committee of the Red Cross late on Saturday. Of the 13 Israelis released, six were women and seven were children and teenagers.
  • Egypt has received lists of a further 13 Israelis and 39 Palestinians scheduled for release on Sunday, the third batch in the four-day truce deal brokered by Egypt and Qatar. Diaa Rashwan, the head of Egypt’s State Information Service (SIS), said in a statement that “The truce is proceeding without roadblocks”, adding that 120 aid tucks crossed from Egypt to Gaza on Sunday including two fuel trucks and two with gas for cooking.
  • The US national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, has confirmed that the administration expects an American hostage to be freed today, but did not confirm who it would be.
  • Hamas has announced that four senior commanders have been killed, including Ahmed Al-Ghandour, a commander in the north of Gaza. Ghandour – whose nom de guerre was Abu Anas – was listed by the US in 2017 as a “specially designated global terrorist”.
  • A Palestinian farmer was killed and another injured on Sunday after they were targeted by Israeli forces in the Maghazi refugee camp in the centre of Gaza, the Palestine Red Crescent Society reported.
  • Israel’s military claimed to have killed five Palestinians overnight as well as arresting 21 in Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank. Funerals were held for those killed on Sunday. The Palestinian Health Ministry said that three others were killed in separate areas of the West Bank since Saturday morning. One of those killed, in al-Bireh in the central West Bank, was a teenager, the ministry said.
  • Gen Herzi Halevy, the chief of general staff of the IDF has said its forces will “return to fighting with full determination” after the humanitarian pause ends.
  • Unidentified armed individuals are believed to have seized the oil cargo vessel Central Park in the Gulf of Aden on Sunday, a US defence official has said. The small oil tanker is managed by the Israeli-owned Zodiac Maritime Ltd, a London-headquartered international ship management company, LSEG data shows.
  • Isreal’s foreign minister Eli Cohen has posted to social media to say that he has summoned the Irish ambassador to Israel for a reprimand, after what he said were “the outrageous words of the prime minister of Ireland”. In a tweet, taoiseach Leo Varadkar had said “This is a day of enormous joy and relief for Emily Hand and her family. An innocent child who was lost has now been found and returned, and we breathe a massive sigh of relief”. The nine-year-old Dublin-born hostage Emily Hand was released from Gaza yesterday, after being abducted by Hamas on 7 October.
  • In London, a large group has gathered outside the Royal Courts of Justice for a rally organised by the charity Campaign Against Antisemitism. The group of a few thousand waved Israeli and British flags and held placards reading “Never Again Is Now” and “Zero Tolerance for Antisemites”. Far-right former leader of the English Defence League, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was among those present. Yaxley-Lennon, who uses the name Tommy Robinson, had been asked to stay away by organisers.
  • London’s Metropolitan police has said it has launched an investigation after a journalist alleged she was verbally abused in an “intimidating” encounter while reporting at the pro-Palestinian march in the UK’s capital on Saturday.

Jake Sullivan, the US national security adviser, has been restating the Biden administration line on the extension of the Israel ground offensive to southern Gaza, as it is widely expected to do after the hostage ceasefire.

The US is insisting that the campaign in the south, where Gaza residents were told by the Israeli government to take shelter, should look very different from in the north, where there were mass civilian casualties. At the time the administration did not directly criticise the Israeli forces for their conduct in the north, but in his CBS News Face the Nation interview, Sullivan said there were lessons to be learned.

“The United States is hoping to see – and frankly what I believe Israel is hoping to see – is the conditions being set whereby any military action only takes place after civilians have been accounted for and have the opportunity to be in safety, to have access to humanitarian assistance, and to be out of the way of any military operation that is conducted.

“That’s the conversation we’re having with the Israelis right now. It’s a constructive conversation and the details of it will remain behind closed doors but the basic notion is that continuing military operations should learn lessons from the north, to be applied in any further undertakings.”

Maybe hamas is trying to redirect to one of their bunkers or steal the aid ?
Will we see another excuse to delay the hostages released today?
Anything is possible, with no drone coverage, due to the agreement.

This is an important message to the civilians of Gaza. During the period of temporary humanitarian pause:

Civilians are allowed to move south especially southward of Wadi Gaza
Do NOT move to the north of the Strip
It is prohibited to enter the sea
It is prohibited to approach within 1 kilometer of the border with Israel.

For your safety, follow these instructions.
