The Israeli army has started to mark the so-called “yellow line” behind which it must withdraw as part of the ceasefire deal it signed with Hamas. They have told Gaza’s residents to stay west of the line, preventing hundreds of thousands of them from returning home, including our Observer Amro. Israeli NGO Gisha has been speaking out about an “indistinct boundary" leading civilians to experience “heightened exposure to live-fire incidents.”
