As funerals are organised for dead Israeli hostages, Gaza tries to rebuild

As funerals are organised for the Israeli hostages whose bodies were returned, Israel says it has reopened the Rafah crossing on October 15, 2025, to allow aid to come back into Gaza. After two years of relentless bombing, the enclave is still figuring out how to rebuild. US President Donald Trump reportedly said negotiations for phase two of the ceasefire have begun.
