“I feel torn, I feel like there is no air”, says Marva Tovia, a teacher from Jerusalem, as Israel and Hamas announced a deal allowing at least 50 hostages and scores of Palestinian prisoners to be freed, while offering besieged Gaza residents a four-day truce after weeks of all-out war. “We are still thinking about the people who are left behind”, she adds. There are an estimated 240 Israelis and foreigners still held captive in Gaza by Hamas militants.
