During the cease-fire, more medical supplies and other aid made it into Gaza, and some hospitals were able to resume some treatments, like dialysis. For the first time in seven weeks, patients with traumatic injuries were not arriving at emergency rooms in waves after airstrikes.
Gazans were able to go out to stock up on essentials, though long lines remained and goods were in short supply. Some returned to their homes to see if they were still intact, check on relatives left behind or bury the dead.
On Friday, the cease-fire fell apart and Israel resumed airstrikes across Gaza.
“Our feeling of safety, even for a moment, is over,” said Yousef Hammash, an advocacy officer for the Norwegian Refugee Council in Gaza. “I don’t know what’s waiting for us now. It seems we are going to hell again.”
