The Hamas-run health ministry says 11,078 people have been killed in Gaza since the start of the war and more than 27,000 others are injured. This includes 4,506 children and more than 3,000 women.

 

According to media reports, eyewitnesses have reported that Israeli forces are close to key Gaza hospitals - Al-Shifa, Al-Quds and the Indonesian Hospital - and there have been reports of explosions inside or near them. Israel has confirmed that its military is operating close to



Al-Shifa.

 

According to the US, four-hour military pauses in areas of northern Gaza will begin to be implemented each day to allow civilians to flee. However, it is not clear when it is expected to start.

 

On October 7th, Hamas attacked Israel and killed at least 1,400 people while more than 240 others were taken hostage. Israel launched a retaliatory offensive in Gaza as a response to the deadly attack.
