Israel has agreed to implement daily four-hour pauses in northern Gaza to allow civilians to evacuate, according to the White House. The announcement comes as President Joe Biden, while pressing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for longer breaks in the fighting, stated that there is “no possibility” of a full ceasefire. The conflict between Israeli forces and Hamas has entered its second month, with ongoing heavy fighting in Gaza City. Despite international calls for a ceasefire, Biden ruled out such a possibility, emphasizing the need for a longer pause.
