Nobel Prize winner and global activist Malala Yousafzai has expressed relief over the women, children, and everyone reunited with their families, and the temporary ceasefire in Israel’s war on Gaza.
In a post on her X account, Malala, however, said that tomorrow, the children of Gaza will wake up grieving loved ones, desperate for food and water. They will fear that their homes, streets, and schools will soon be under fire again, she added.
Tonight, I feel relief for the women, children and young people reunited with their families, and for the pause in the bombardment of Gaza.

The activist urged the world to keep seeking a full ceasefire and humanitarian aid to the people of the war-torn strip of land.
“The needless suffering must end.”
Earlier this month, Malala had stressed that children and schools should never be targets, in reference to Israel's bombing of schools and hospitals, killing thousands of children since October 7.
"This isn’t a matter of opinion — it’s international law. I continue my call for a ceasefire," she posted on X.
