The Israeli army announced today "a tactical pause" in the southern Gaza Strip . The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it will implement a daily "tactical pause" in military activity in part of the southern Palestinian enclave during daylight hours to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid.

The IDF declared in a statement that the stop "for humanitarian purposes will take place every day from 8am to 7pm until further notice along the road leading from the Kerem Shalom crossing to Salah al-Din Road and then northwards ".

In the meantime, yesterday and like every Saturday for months, thousands of demonstrators took to the streets in various cities of Israel to demand the release of the hostages and protest against the government of Benjamin Netanyahu.

And in the evening Benny Gantz also took part in a demonstration in Sha'ar HaNegev in the south of the country , less than a week after resigning from the government.

Protesters also gathered outside Netanyahu's official residence in Jerusalem and in Tel Aviv, where opposition leader Yair Lapid accuses the prime minister of "temporizing so that people forget that he is guilty and responsible" for the Hamas assault.
