Israel has suspended the entry of all goods and supplies into the Gaza Strip, citing Hamas's refusal to accept a proposal for extending the first phase of a ceasefire. Hamas condemns the move as a war crime and accuses Israel of attempting to sabotage the truce.
TEL AVIV, Israel — Israel stopped the entry of all goods and supplies into the Gaza Strip on Sunday and warned of “additional consequences” if Hamas does not accept a new proposal for an extension of the first phase of a fragile ceasefire.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said earlier on Sunday that it supports what it described as a proposal from U.S. Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff to extend the first phase of the ceasefire through Ramadan and Passover, which end on April 20.Under that proposal, Hamas would release half the hostages on the first day and the rest when an agreement is reached on a permanent ceasefire, according toNetanyahu’s office.
Hamas said Israel’s aid suspension was another violation, saying deliveries were supposed to continue as the sides negotiated over the second phase of the deal.
