Israeli military withdraws from Netzarim

Israeli forces have withdrawn from the strategic corridor that divides northern and southern Gaza, as part of a ceasefire plan that has brought a fragile pause to the 16-month war.

On Sunday, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Hamas officials confirmed that the Israeli military had withdrawn from the Netzarim corridor, the 4-mile (6 km) strip of land that Israel set up within weeks of the war and used as a military zone during the fighting.

When the ceasefire came into effect last month, Israel began allowing Palestinians to cross Netzarim to return to their homes in the devastated north, with hundreds of thousands of people streaming across Gaza on foot and by car.

Israeli officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss troop movement with the media, did not disclose how many soldiers withdrew or to where.

Israel has said it will not agree to a complete withdrawal from Gaza until Hamas’s military and political capabilities have been eliminated. Hamas, meanwhile, says it will not hand over the last hostages it seized during its attacks on 7 October 2023 until Israel removes all troops from the territory.
