TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — The fragile ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war is being tested. An Israeli military agency said Tuesday it will halve the number of trucks allowed to bring humanitarian aid into devastated Gaza over concerns about the slow return of the remains of dead hostages. The issue emerged a day after jubilation over the return of the last 20 living hostages and the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners in exchange. A U.N. spokesperson says Israel has informed it of plans to halve aid into Gaza. Hamas appeared to heed the pressure. Israel’s military later said several coffins would be transferred to the Red Cross.
