The tenuous ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict was holding, following the exchange of the last 20 living Israeli hostages for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners.
Israeli troops opened fire in northern Gaza after individuals approached the 'yellow line' and failed to comply with orders, with no immediate comment on casualties.
