These &#8220;humanitarian pauses&#8221; will occur over three days across various regions of the conflict-affected area, starting Sunday in central Gaza, according to Rik Peeperkorn, WHO representative for the Palestinian territories.

He acknowledged that while this may not be an ideal solution, it is a feasible approach given the circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>These humanitarian pauses are distinct from a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas that mediators from the U.S., Egypt, and Qatar have been pursuing through ongoing discussions this week.
