Numerous Palestinian residents are now heading back to northern Gaza following an agreement between Israel and Hamas to release six hostages this week.
Video footage from Wadi Gaza, situated along the coast of the Gaza Strip, depicts a large crowd walking, carrying their belongings as they return.
Large parts of northern Gaza lie in ruins following Israeli airstrikes.
Hamas released four soldiers on Saturday, holding back Yehud, a civilian, prompting accusations from Israel of violating the Gaza ceasefire agreement.
Yehud and two other captives are expected to be released on Thursday.
Earlier in the conflict, the Israeli military issued multiple directives for civilians to vacate northern Gaza, leading to the displacement of hundreds of thousands of residents.
