According to the understandings that led to the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, Jerusalem will allow a transfer of $30 million from Qatar to the Gaza Strip very soon, the Kan public broadcaster reports.
The cash shipment will be delivered “very soon,” the report says, adding that, until now, the periodical transfer was only $20 million. Israel is also expected to open the border crossings.
Also according to the truce agreement, the Hamas terror group that rules Gaza has committed to reigning in Islamic Jihad, which initiated the recent two-day flareup.
Additionally, the weekly border protests and riots will be scaled down and held farther away from the border fence with Israel, the report says. Terror groups will also stop the launching of balloon-borne arson devices into Israel.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
