Israel bombards Gaza City overnight; Hamas leader due in Cairo in bid to salvage ceasefire talks

Israeli bombardment kills at least 11 civilians as Hamas leader Khalil Al-Hayya travels to Cairo for ceasefire talks amid worsening humanitarian crisis with 227 starvation deaths, health ministry said.

  • On Tuesday, sustained air and tank strikes targeted eastern Gaza City throughout the night, resulting in the deaths of at least 11 individuals, while Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya was preparing to attend ceasefire negotiations in Cairo.
  • The conflict escalated after Hamas militants launched an attack on southern Israel, killing 1,200 individuals and taking 251 hostages, which led to Israel initiating extensive ground and air operations in Gaza.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu intends to increase military operations in Gaza, a decision that has sparked widespread international condemnation amidst extensive destruction and a critical humanitarian emergency impacting more than two million people.
  • Health authorities in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip report 227 deaths from starvation and malnutrition since the war began, including 103 children, though Israel disputes these figures and accuses Hamas of misusing aid.
  • Mediators Egypt and Qatar are persisting in efforts to restart U.S.-supported ceasefire negotiations despite major disagreements over Israeli troop withdrawal and Hamas's refusal to disarm, while Netanyahu maintains that the conflict will continue until Hamas is completely eliminated.
