JERUSALEM, July 27 (Xinhua) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided on Saturday evening to suspend hostilities in the Gaza Strip for the entire day on Sunday, Israeli media reported.

According to Israeli state television channel Kan TV News, the decision was made after consultations between B. Netanyahu, Defense Minister Israel Katz, Foreign Minister Gideon Saar and other senior officials in response to international pressure on the situation in Gaza.

Earlier on Saturday, the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement that airlifts of humanitarian aid into Gaza would resume later that night.

Palestinian sources and eyewitnesses confirmed that airdrops of humanitarian aid resumed in various areas of northern Gaza on Saturday evening.

It comes amid warnings from aid agencies of growing hunger in Gaza, where access to basic necessities has been severely restricted since Israel closed all border crossings in March. –0–
