The train station and the port in Ukraine’s southern city Kherson as well as some part of the city fell to the Russians, the Mayor Igor Kolihayev announced. Stating that the Russians continue to occupy the city, Kolihayev said, “The Russian army continues to advance on our streets. They have captured the train station and the port. There are problems with how we will provide the conditions necessary for normal life to continue in our city today and tomorrow. Kherson continues to resist.”
Gazans Celebrate Ceasefire Between Israel and Hamas
Palestinians celebrated the ceasefire agreement reached between Israel and Hamas after indirect talks in Egypt, marking the first step of a broader peace plan involving hostage exchanges and Israeli troop withdrawals. Crowds, including children displaced by Israeli attacks, gathered around Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Hospital to celebrate the end of the fighting. Residents in Maghazi Refugee Camp expressed hopes for rebuilding Gaza and establishing a Palestinian state. “Thank God, the war is over. Our homes were destroyed, and our children killed. We thank everyone who helped end this war,” said Yasser Abu Hein. Others shared optimism that Gaza would “return better than before.”
Israel confirmed that the ceasefire would begin following a cabinet vote later in the day.
