We’re pausing our live updates for now, but we’ll be back with more soon. Before we go, here’s a summary of today’s developments.
At least 33 killed in Gaza
At least 33 people have been killed by Israeli strikes and shootings in Gaza today, medics said, including Palestinians sheltering in tents or seeking food.
According to morgue records and health officials at Nasser Hospital, Israeli strikes killed at least 17 people in the southern Gaza Strip earlier this morning.
Israeli gunfire killed at least five aid-seekers near the Zikim crossing with Israel in northern Gaza, health officials at the Sheikh Radwan field hospital said.
Eleven people were also killed in other attacks in Gaza elsewhere, according to hospitals and the Palestinian Red Crescent.

In a letter, Emine Erdogan mentioned the past advocacy of the US president’s wife, highlighting her compassion for the 648 Ukrainian children who have lost their lives in the conflict.
Gaza famine ‘irrefutable’, UN aid chief says
It came the day after famine was declared in Gaza City, something the UN’s aid chief described as “irrefutable”.

“Yet food stacks up at borders because of systematic obstruction by Israel. It is a famine within a few hundred metres of food, in a fertile land.”
