Thousands of displaced Palestinians returned to Gaza City during a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, with many shocked by the destruction. Israel withdrew troops, allowing around 250,000 residents to return, yet many homes were reduced to rubble.
Reports include Raja Salmi, who found her home destroyed, and estimates that 50,000 people returned on a single day.
The ceasefire negotiations involve hostages and prisoner exchanges, though key points remain unagreed upon.
Residents report significant destruction, especially in hospitals, and humanitarian agencies hope to deliver aid amid the declared famine in Gaza City.
