Thousands of Palestinians have started on Monday the return to the north of the Gaza Stripin a new step in the application of the high the fire agreed between Israel and the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), which entered into force on January 19, after more than 15 months of Israeli offensive against the enclave in response to the attacks perpetrated on October 7, 2023.
The authorization for the return of these people, subject to various conditions, has been confirmed early by the day by the Arabic spokesman for the Army of Israel, Avichai Adraiwho has detailed that the population “can return to the north of Gaza by the Netzarim corridor and the street Alshid” from 7.00 (local time). “
“Vehicles may circulate north of the strip after inspection through the Saladino Street From 9.00 hours (local time), “he specified in his account in the social network X, before warning that” the transfer of militiamen or weapons on these routes to the north will be considered a violation of the agreement. “
Thus, Adrai has claimed the Gazati population that “Do not cooperate with any terrorist organization that can try to exploit it to transfer weapons or prohibited materials”while reiterating that “it is forbidden to approach the forces of the Israel Defense Forces (FDI) in all places in its deployment and concentration. “
“In the south of the Gaza Strip, it is forbidden to approach the area of the Rafa’s stepto the area of Philadelphia corridor Already all areas of concentration of forces, “said Adrai, who has also warned against fishing or” entering the sea “during the next few days, as well as” approaching the damping zone and entering territory Israeli”.
In this line, Israel’s defense minister, Israel Katzhe has promised that the authorities will apply “strictly” El Alto el Fuego. “Who breaks the rules or threatens the FDI forces will pay the total price. We will not allow a return to the reality of October 7, “he said through his account in X.
For its part, the press office of the Gazati authorities, controlled by Hamas, has published in its telegram account the terms of the agreement for the return of the hundreds of thousands of displaced in northern Gaza, coinciding with the details provided by Adrai, and has added that “More than 5,500 officials work to facilitate the return of the displaced from the southern and central governorates.”
The Gazatí Health Ministry has reported that it has deployed ambulances in the area to “provide urgent medical care to citizens returning to their homes.” “We urge everyone to follow the instructions of the medical equipment and to go to the emergency points when necessary,” he explained in a statement published in his account on the social network Facebook.
Hamas statement in which he describes the news as “historical moment”
After the reopening of the routes for the return of the displaced, Hamas has published in a statement in which he has emphasized that “the Return of the displaced is a victory of the people (Palestinian) and a declaration of failure and the defeat of the occupation and its displacement plans. “
“The scenes about the return of the masses of our people to areas of which they were forced to flee, although their homes are destroyed, confirm the greatness of our people and their firmness in their landdespite the enormous pain and the size of the tragedy, “he said.
“These images, full of the joy of return, love to earth and the relationship with it, are a message to all those who They bet to break the will of our people and move it from their land“, the Islamist group reiterated, as collected by the Palestinian newspaper ‘Filaastin’.
Thus, he has stressed that the return of the displaced “demonstrates once again the Occupation failure When achieving their aggressive objectives of displacing the people and breaking their will “and has asked to” intensify “the delivery of humanitarian aid to what describes as” a historical moment. “
Hamas spokesman, Abdulatif al Qanuhe said that the return of the displaced “represents another failure of the occupation when achieving their objectives in the war of extermination and destruction”, in addition to assuming “a message of challenge to any new attempt to displace them.”
Al Qanu has thus referred to the recent statements of the president of the United States, Donald Trumpwho affirmed on Saturday that will raise Egypt and Jordan the possibility of receiving a million and a half of displaced from the Gaza Strip for its “accommodation” in the medium or long term, at least as long as the reconstruction of the enclave lasts, a scenario that both countries have already rejected.
“The firmness of our people in their land and their return from south to northern Gaza represents the End of Zionist dream of displacing them and liquidating their just cause“He has argued, before stating that” this historical epic written in Gaza through sacrifices demands that the world do justice to the Palestinian people to have their legitimate rights and end the occupation. “
In this line, Islamic jihad has highlighted the “legendary” scenes that are witnessing the return of those displaced north of Gaza, “turned into debris by Zionist criminals.” “This return is an answer to all those who dreamed of moving to our people”he said.
“Islamic Yihad takes this occasion to affirm that the firmness of our people will eliminate all Zionist dreams of stealing the joy of our hearts and breaking the jailer and occupant shackles“The Palestinian group has settled.
Criticism of the Minister of National Security of Israel
In fact, the Minister of National Security of Israel, the ultra -rightist Itamar Ben Gvirhas criticized the return of the Palestinians to their homes in northern Gaza and has said that it is “another humiliating part” of the “imprudent” agreement of Alto El Fuego, which has rejected from the beginning.
“This is not the appearance that has a ‘total victory’. This seems a total surrender. The heroic soldiers of the IDF did not fight and gave their lives in the Gaza Strip so that these images were possible. We must return to war and destroy, “he added in X, within the framework of his message against any negotiation.
The return of displaced to northern Gaza has started after Hamas agreed to release three hostages on Thursday, after last minute discrepancies on this point, which was already between what was agreed in the high -fire agreement.
The spokesman of the Foreign Ministry of Qatar, Mayed to Ansarihe explained through his profile in the social network X that, “within the framework of the efforts led by the mediators”, the parties have “reached an understanding” for which Hamas will deliver to Arbel Yehud and two other hostages, while it will release another three on Saturday, “in accordance with the agreement.”
After that, the office of the prime minister of Israel, Benjamin NetanyahuHe confirmed that Hamas will carry out a “rule of additional hostage release this Thursday”, which includes “the Civil Arbel Yehud, soldier Agam Berger and another hostage.” “In addition, three more hostages will be released next Saturday according to the agreement,” he added.
Netanyahu had previously announced the suspension of the return protocol of the Palestinian civilian population north of the Gaza Strip after accusing Hamas of partially breaching the agreement of the Alto El Fuego, by denouncing that Yehud, which would be in the hands of the armed arm of Yihad Islamic, the Quds brigades had not been released within the stipulated period.
