Israeli strikes kill dozens in northern Gaza as truce talks resume

October 28, 2024

CAIRO - Israeli military strikes killed at least 36 Palestinians across Gaza on Oct 27, as efforts to secure a ceasefire in the more than year-long war resumed in Qatar.

The directors of the US Central Intelligence Agency and Israel's Mossad intelligence agency were set to meet the Qatari Prime Minister on Oct 27 in Doha.

The negotiations will seek a short-term ceasefire and the release of some hostages being held by Hamas in exchange for Israel's release of Palestinian prisoners.

The talks aim to get Israel and Hamas to agree to a halt in fighting for less than a month in the hope that it would lead to a more permanent ceasefire.

At least 34 of those killed on Oct 27 were in northern Gaza, where Israeli troops have returned to root out Hamas fighters who it says have regrouped there.

Twenty people were killed following an air strike on houses in Jabalia, the largest of Gaza's eight historic refugee camps.
