Board of Peace demands Israel comply with Gaza ceasefire, calls for end to kite attacks

The Board of Peace (BoP) has delivered a message to Hamas via Egyptian, Qatari, and Turkish mediators, demanding an immediate halt to all militant activity, including kite launches, from Gaza into Israel. This message, conveyed through a new US-led monitoring mechanism, warns of "serious consequences for continued violations." A BoP official stated, "All militant activity in the Gaza Strip must stop, including the flying of kites." The BoP also stressed that Israel must adhere to the ceasefire, limiting military action to genuine threats. The goal is to disarm Hamas and create conditions for peace. Concurrently, Gazan parents have been warned by local committees, in coordination with Hamas, to prevent children from flying kites. Israel has intensified efforts against October 7 terrorists, conducting strikes on Hamas weapons facilities, some located in mosques and near humanitarian infrastructure, following recent kite launches. Israeli officials have warned of escalated IDF operations if kite launches do not cease within 72 hours.
