At least 63 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air and sea attacks on Rafah overnight, according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza.

Israel’s planned ground offensive on Rafah will “blow up” the captive exchange negotiations, the Al-Aqsa television channel quoted a senior Hamas leader as saying on Sunday.

US President Joe Biden tells Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu that a military ground assault would need a “safety” plan for more than 1 million people sheltering in Rafah.

A shipment with a month’s supply of food for Gaza is being blocked in Israel’s Ashdod Port, says UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini.

Israeli bombardment of Gaza has killed at least 28,176 Palestinians and wounded 67,784 others since October 7. The death toll in Israel from the October 7 Hamas attacks stands at 1,139.
