"Al-Ahli Hospital tells Al Jazeera that seven bodies have been recovered after Israeli attack helicopters swoop east of Gaza City. Palestinian families have begun returning to Gaza City as Israel continued deadly attacks on the enclave, despite signing the first phase of a ceasefire deal paving the way for fighting to stop in the next 24 hours. As displaced families from the southern parts of the enclave moved north on Friday, Israel launched a deadly attack from helicopters on a site east of Gaza City and conducted air strikes in the southern Khan Younis area, according to Al Jazeera Arabic."
"What is controversial is that there has been high activity of Israeli drones, fighter jets and even warships from the early hours of this morning, said Al Jazeera's Tareq Abu Azzoum, reporting from Nuseirat in Deir el-Balah, central Gaza. Abu Azzoum said families had started moving towards the north of the Strip, but were still waiting to enter the areas in the Netzarim Corridor, where the Israeli army used to operate. They are waiting for the last Israeli tank to leave the region to enter the territory, he said. Gaza's civil defence warned people to keep away from the border areas of Gaza City until the official announcement of the withdrawal of Israeli forces."

Palestinian families began returning north as displaced people moved from southern parts of the enclave. Israel launched a deadly helicopter attack east of Gaza City and carried out air strikes in Khan Younis, with rounds of shelling and heavy tank fire reported north of the city. There were no initial casualty reports from the Khan Younis strikes. The attacks came after Israel ratified the first phase of a ceasefire deal and while Israeli forces reportedly began pulling back behind the agreed line. High activity of drones, fighter jets and warships persisted, and Gaza's civil defence warned residents to avoid border areas until an official withdrawal announcement.
