GAZA CITY—Nizar Daghmash, the 56-year-old head of the Daghmash family council, stood in front of the ruins of his family home in Gaza City on Friday after making the journey back to the north following a ceasefire that went to effect earlier that day at 12 p.m. His house was still standing but only barely—more of a broken concrete shell surrounded by rubble.

“As you can see, the scene speaks for itself,” Daghmash told Drop Site. “The stone, as a stone, has no material value to us. But the emotional value—these stones, we placed them one by one, me, my father, my brothers, and my sisters. A flood of memories runs through my mind now—not about the stones or the house itself, but because this house represents our history.”

Tens of thousands of displaced Palestinians returned to the north on Friday, making their way along Al-Rashid road. Like Daghmash, many had fled Gaza City following Israel’s brutal military offensive on the city that began in mid-August in a stated campaign of ethnic cleansing. They returned to find many of their neighborhoods unrecognizable.

London (AFP) – Tens of thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters marched in London on Saturday, expressing scepticism and cautious hope as a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza entered its second day.

"We're... sharing the relief of the Palestinian people," said Ben Jamal, director of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign which has organised massive monthly pro-Palestinian rallies in London since the start of the war [...].

"But we also come here sharing their trepidation that this ceasefire will not hold, rooted in the knowledge that Israel has violated every ceasefire agreement it's ever signed," Jamal told AFP.

Despite concerns about President Donald Trump's proposed peace plan for Gaza -- calling for a transitional authority headed by the US leader -- Jamal said there was an "immense sense of relief".

A sea or red and green, the colours of the Palestinian flag, formed along the embankment of the River Thames in central London, where the largely peaceful march began.

Protesters donned black-and-white keffiyeh scarves, carrying signs of "Stop Starving Gaza" and "Stop the genocide" and chanting "Free Palestine" and "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free".

A group of counter-protesters waving Israeli flags blared loud music as the main demonstration marched towards Whitehall. London police said a "small number of arrests" were made during scuffles between the two groups.

"I'm here with my friends to help show that there is, continuously, eyes on Gaza, even considering the current ceasefire," said 23-year-old sociology and psychology student Katrina Scales.

She added a ceasefire was "not enough", and that she planned to keep attending marches.

Trade unionist Steve Headley, in his fifties, was also unconvinced.

"Hopefully now we've got the first steps towards peace, but we've been here before," Headley told AFP. He questioned Trump's "plans for a 'riviera' in Gaza" that the US president had touted earlier this year.

For 74-year-old Miranda Finch, part of a group marching under the banner of "descendants of Holocaust survivors against Gaza genocide", the ceasefire was "very little".

"The Palestinians are not going back to nothing. They're going back to less than nothing. Rubble on top of bodies, on top of sewage."

Fabio Capogreco, 42, who was attending his fifth demonstration with his two children and wife, said the ceasefire was "too little, too late", adding that those complicit in the war needed to be held accountable.

"Hopefully it's one of the last times we need to come here to manifest," said the bar manager. "But I think it's too early to say everything is ok."

Beirut (Lebanon) (AFP) – Lebanese President Joseph Aoun on Saturday condemned an overnight Israeli strike on civilian sites, which reportedly killed at least one person and which Israel said targeted Hezbollah infrastructure.

"Once again, southern Lebanon has been the target of a heinous Israeli aggression against civilian installations -- without justification or pretext," Aoun said.

"The seriousness of this latest attack lies in the fact that it comes after the ceasefire agreement in Gaza," he added, questioning whether Israel now sought to expand its attacks on Lebanon.

The health ministry said one person was killed and seven wounded in the strike on the Al-Msayleh area in southern Lebanon.

The Israeli military shortly thereafter said in a statement that it "struck and dismantled Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure in the area of southern Lebanon, where engineering machinery used to re-establish terrorist infrastructure in the area" was located.

Later on Saturday, the Lebanese health ministry reported that another Israeli attack on a vehicle in Burj al-Qalaouiyah, also in southern Lebanon, killed one person.

The Israeli military did not immediately comment on the Burj al-Qalaouiyah strike.

Lebanon's official National News Agency reported that Israeli warplanes carried out 10 raids targeting bulldozer and excavator yards in Al-Msayleh, destroying more than 300 vehicles.

An AFP photographer at the scene witnessed massive destruction to the showrooms, with dozens of heavy machinery vehicles burned and firefighters extinguishing the flames.

"We woke up terrified by the sound of bombing," an elderly woman who asked to remain anonymous told AFP, adding that "we saw death with our own eyes".

Al-Msayleh, located over 40 kilometres (25 miles) north of the border with Israel, is where parliament speaker and Hezbollah ally Nabih Berri's home in southern Lebanon is located.

In a statement, Hezbollah condemned the strikes, saying it was "part of the repeated and deliberate targeting of civilians and economic infrastructure, and is intended to prevent people from returning to normal life".

The group called on the Lebanese government to take a "firm" stance against these attacks.

Israel has repeatedly bombed Lebanon despite a November ceasefire, which followed more than a year of hostilities with the militant group that culminated in two months of open war.

Its latest attack comes a day after a ceasefire took effect between Hamas and Israel in the Gaza Strip.

In Lebanon there are fears of intensified Israeli attacks on Hezbollah, which has thus far resisted pressure to surrender its weapons to the state.

In southern Lebanon, Israeli forces may no longer occupy towns on foot—but for residents, the war continues overhead and from the nearby hilltops.

Daily drone patrols hover above villages, launching strikes with no warning. Snipers stationed on Israeli-held hilltops train their sights on roads, rooftops and fields.

In September, an Israeli drone strike in Bint Jbeil killed five civilians, including three children. The victims were traveling by car through a residential neighborhood when the missile hit.
