The Palestinian Islamic Jihad (Jihad) and Israel announced on the 7th that they had reached a ceasefire agreement on the current round of conflict.

On the 8th, the Israeli side began to gradually lift the relevant restrictions on the southern part of Israel and the Gaza Strip due to the tense situation.

  On August 1, the Israel Defense Forces arrested Bassem Saadi, the leader of the Jahad West Bank region, and others in the West Bank city of Jenin.

Subsequently, Jihad, headquartered in the Gaza Strip, announced that it had entered a state of readiness to use "the most advanced weapons" to attack Israel.

  In order to prevent Jahad from launching an attack, Israel announced the closure of the main roads and railways in the border area between Israel and the Gaza Strip, as well as the Erez Port, the only land passage for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip to enter and leave Israel.

  On the 5th, the Israeli army launched airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, hitting multiple Jihad targets.

Jahad fired a large number of rockets into Israel.

The three-day conflict left at least 44 dead and more than 300 injured. It was the most serious conflict between Palestine and Israel in more than a year.

  After the urgent mediation of the United Nations and Egypt, Jihad reached a ceasefire agreement with Israel on the 7th.

  The Israel Defense Forces announced on the 8th that it will reopen the Erez port, allowing fuel and humanitarian aid to enter the Gaza Strip, but temporarily prohibiting pedestrians from entering and leaving.

According to Israeli military radio reports, the port may reopen to Palestinian laborers as early as the 9th.

  According to World Bank data, the unemployment rate in the Gaza Strip is close to 48%, and about 12,000 Palestinians enter Israel through the Erez port every day to work.

Whenever the situation in the Gaza Strip is tense, Israel usually closes the Erez port and restricts the entry of Palestinians.

  In addition, the once closed main roads and railways in the border area between Israel and the Gaza Strip have been reopened on the 8th.

In southern Israel, adjacent to the Gaza Strip, public life services in towns and communities have returned to normal, and travel restrictions have been lifted for residents.

  Although the situation has calmed down, local public opinion generally believes that the ceasefire agreement is "more fragile". Due to the weak foundation of mutual trust and the failure to fully implement the ceasefire agreement many times in the past, the possibility of re-emergence of war cannot be completely ruled out.

  According to Jihad, this organization agreed to reach a ceasefire agreement with Egypt's active mediation, and "Egypt promised to work hard to persuade Israel to release the two Jihad hostages."

However, Israeli officials have made it clear that they have not agreed to release any of the detained Jihad members.
