TL;DR Summary

Israel and Hamas have agreed to extend the temporary cease-fire in Gaza for a seventh day, while violence in Jerusalem and the West Bank continues to escalate. Israeli police reported three people killed in a shooting attack in Jerusalem, which a far-right member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's cabinet blamed on Hamas. Hamas and its armed wing claimed responsibility for the attack, citing it as a response to Israeli occupation crimes. The cease-fire extension includes the release of more hostages and prisoners, as well as the entry of humanitarian aid trucks into Gaza. Netanyahu vowed to eliminate Hamas and continue the war until three goals are achieved: freeing all hostages, eliminating Hamas, and preventing future threats from Gaza.
