Israelis open fire on Palestinians trying to return home during truce

Middle East Eye's Maha Hussaini is still on the ground in Gaza. She reports that Israeli forces are firing towards Palestinians to deter them from returning home during the four-day truce. 

"Israeli forces open fire towards Palestinians trying to return to their homes east of Maghazi in Central Gaza, around two and a half hours after the pause went into effect," said Hussaini. 

"I'm standing on the rooftop of our house of refuge, and I can hear Israeli gun machines in the east."
