Israel has opened the Erez border crossing into northern Gaza. The Erez Crossing is the only crossing into the north of the territory. It was closed following Hamas’ October 7 terror attacks. Aid agencies had been calling for its re-opening for months to allow them to deliver desperately needed food and medicine to hundreds-of-thousands of civilians at risk of famine.
Cease-fire talks are still underway in Cairo, Egypt. We spoke to our correspondent Rebecca Ritters in Jerusalem on Israel’s counterproposal for a hostage deal, involving a 40-day pause in hostilities, and Hamas’ likely response.
