Israel agrees to four-hour pauses in Gaza military operations
SUMMARY: Israel has agreed to pause military operations against Hamas in the Gaza Strip for at least four hours at different times to allow for the evacuation of civilians from the conflict zone. President Biden urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to agree to these “tactical pauses” to ease the humanitarian crisis. The White House supports Israel's efforts to eliminate the terror group but is also under pressure to push for more humanitarian assistance to Gaza. The IDF has opened corridors for evacuations and is allowing more trucks with humanitarian aid to enter the strip. Israeli officials have stated that the pauses are for humanitarian purposes.

SUMMARY: Lowndes County Road Department workers teamed up with Columbus Public Works crews to clean up debris after a wind event. 28 county workers used 11 dump trucks to remove more than 100 loads of debris in two days. They cleared areas for utility crews to restore services and facilitated the replacement of streetlights and other repairs. Despite political boundaries, everyone worked together to get the job done efficiently. The county saw some damage near the new Sportsplex, but the city experienced the hardest hit areas. Collaboration between different departments expedited the clean-up process and aided in overall recovery efforts.
