As an Israeli offensive in the north of the Gaza Strip enters a fourth week, local residents say they are starving as aid convoys are blocked from reaching them.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called for aid to enter northern Gaza as the situation was "untenable" for Palestinian people.Dozens of people have been killed by Israeli air strikes in northern Gaza in the last day, with local residents saying they are starving from lack of food and aid.
Israeli authorities were hampering efforts to deliver food, medicine and other essential humanitarian supplies, putting lives at risk, he said.Israel says its forces operate in accordance with international law, and accuses Hamas of using civilians as human shields — a claim it denies. The largest of the Gaza Strip's eight historic refugee camps, Jabalia has been the focus of an Israeli military offensive for more than three weeks.
Bodies were scattered on the ground, while some carried wounded children in their arms before loading them in a vehicle.Three local journalists were among those killed at the school in Shati — Saed Radwan, head of digital media at Hamas Al-Aqsa television, Hanin Baroud, and Hamza Abu Selmeya, according to Hamas media.
Egyptian leader Abdel Fattah al-Sisi made the announcement as efforts to defuse the war resumed in Qatar with the directors of the CIA and Israel's Mossad intelligence agency taking part.The IDF says there are hundreds of millions of dollars in cash and gold stored in an underground Hezbollah command centre. But the hospital allegedly above it says that's impossible.
The US, Qatar and Egypt have been spearheading negotiations to end the war that erupted after Hamas fighters stormed into southern Israel on October 7 last year, killing 1,200 people and taking more than 250 hostages, by Israeli tallies.
