APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Beit Lahia - 26 May 2021. Palestinian members of Gaza's Bar Woolf sports team perform with fire above the ruins of a building destroyed in recent Israeli air strikes
- 0.1 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Ahmed Abu Hasera
STORYLINE
A ceasefire was reached late last week after 11 days of deadly violence between Israel and the Hamas movement, stopping Israel's devastating bombardment on the overcrowded Palestinian coastal enclave which, according to the Gaza health ministry, killed 254 Palestinians, including 66 children, and wounded more than 1,900 people. Meanwhile, rockets from Gaza claimed 12 lives in Israel.
Gaza’s housing ministry said that 16,800 housing units had been damaged. Of those, 1,800 had become unfit for living and 1,000 were destroyed completely.
US top diplomat Antony Blinken vowed support to help rebuild the battered Gaza Strip and shore up a truce between Hamas and Israel, but insisted the territory's Islamist militant rulers would not benefit from any aid.
