Israeli forces withdrew from the Netzarim corridor on Sunday, Israeli officials and Hamas said, the latest commitment under a tenuous ceasefire that faces a major test over whether the sides can negotiate its planned extension.<\/p>\n<p>Israelis&#8217; shock at the sight of three emaciated hostages released on Saturday has added pressure on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to extend the truce instead of returning to fighting when the ceasefire&#8217;s first phase ends in early March. Israel and Hamas appear to have made little progress on negotiating the deal\u2019s second phase, which is also meant to see more hostages released. Talks had been due to start on Feb. 3. Netanyahu was sending a delegation to Qatar, a key mediator, but it included low-level officials, sparking speculation that it won\u2019t lead to a breakthrough. Netanyahu, who returned to Israel on Sunday after a U.S. visit to meet with President Donald Trump is expected to convene key Cabinet ministers this week.<\/p>\n<p>The six-kilometre Netzarim corridor separating northern and southern Gaza had been used by Israel as a military zone during the 16-month war, but no troops were seen in the vicinity on Sunday. As the ceasefire began last month, Israel began allowing hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians to cross Netzarim and return to the north. Separately on Sunday, the Palestinian Health Ministry said two women, one of them eight months pregnant, were killed by Israeli gunfire in the occupied West Bank, where Israeli troops have been carrying out an operation.<\/p>\n<p>The ceasefire that began on Jan. 19 has held, raising hopes that the war that led to seismic shifts in the Middle East may be headed toward an end. But it remains fragile. On Sunday, civil defence first responders in Gaza said three people were killed by Israeli fire east of Gaza City. Israel&#8217;s military noted \u201cseveral hits\u201d after warning shots were fired and again warned Palestinians from approaching its forces. Cars piled with belongings headed north through a road that crosses Netzarim. Under the deal, Israel should allow cars to cross uninspected.<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren\u2019t authorised to discuss troop movement with the media, did not say how many soldiers withdrew or to where. Troops remain along Gaza\u2019s borders with Israel and Egypt. Hamas spokesperson Abdel Latif Al-Qanoua said the troops&#8217; withdrawal showed the militant group had \u201cforced the enemy to submit to our demands&#8221; and that it thwarted \u201cNetanyahu\u2019s illusion of achieving total victory.\u201d Israel has said it won\u2019t agree to a complete withdrawal from Gaza until Hamas\u2019 military and political capabilities are eliminated. Hamas says it won\u2019t hand over the last hostages until Israel removes all troops from the territory.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2025\/02\/09\/israel-withdraws-from-key-gaza-corridor-as-part-of-ceasefire-deal\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2025\/02\/09\/israel-withdraws-from-key-gaza-corridor-as-part-of-ceasefire-deal\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vau-viikkokatsaus\/israel-withdraws-from-key-gaza-corridor-as-part-of-ceasefire-deal\/\">Israel withdraws from key Gaza corridor as part of ceasefire deal<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[17927,3444,1684,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-137375","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-ceasefire-deal","tag-gaza","tag-israel","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137375","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137375"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137375\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137375"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137375"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137375"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
