"Many of our own colleagues did decide to flee with their families to find safety," said Benoit."They are on the run. They are looking for shelter. They are dehydrated. They're exhausted." One hospital in Gaza where Doctors Without Borders is operating has run out of pain killers, meaning patients are left with nothing to alleviate their suffering from wounds, said Benoit.

“My sense of the pulse of the Israeli public right now, the government and the military, is that the primary objective today is to remove Hamas from its ability to govern,” he said. “That means that hostages may be sacrificed” and “this hurts me so much to say that the hostages might be considered additional casualties of the war for Israel’s survival.”The European Union said today it is launching a humanitarian air bridge operation to bring lifesaving supplies to Gaza.
Janez Lenarčič, the E.U. commissioner for crisis management, said warring parties are obliged to ensure humanitarian access to civilians in line with international humanitarian Law.

Shawa said that, even if the border does open, there is no news on the fate of Palestinians who don’t have foreign passports — leaving Palestinian Americans with the difficult decision to leave loved ones behind.

“Well, one of the families that I talked to, pointed to probably about a 5- or 6-year-old girl similar to my daughter, and said that she was saying when all the rockets kept going off: ‘I don’t want the rockets, I want to go to Florida, I don’t want the rockets, I want to get back to Florida,’” he said.

Israel only has seven forensic pathologists in the country, but it says volunteers have come in to help, including the team of four Americans. Russia and China’s message has been notably in lock-step.

The Rafah crossing is the only non-Israeli-controlled point out of Gaza. It was expected to reopen today to allow the outflow of foreign national Palestinians and to allow the badly needed humanitarian aid in, but all sides have denied there were any truce conditions in place for that to happen early this morning.
“Detectives were able to determine that both victims in this brutal attack were targeted by the suspect due to them being Muslim and the ongoing Middle Eastern conflict involving Hamas and the Israelis,” the sheriff’s office said in a news release.“The child’s Palestinian Muslim family came to America seeking what we all seek—a refuge to live, learn, and pray in peace,” President Joe Biden said in a statement. “This horrific act of hate has no place in America.
Hamas officials “stated that they are ready to take necessary measures to release the citizens and civilians held by resistant groups, but their point was that such measures require preparations that are impossible under daily bombardment by the Zionists against various parts of Gaza,” Kanaani said. That has offered hope for some of those waiting for a way out of the war zone. Thousands of Palestinians with foreign passports, including hundreds of American citizens, are gathered this morning at the Rafah border crossing into Egypt — the only potential way in and out of the Gaza Strip. They are tired and anxious after days of false starts.
Despite Israel saying it had resumed water supply to parts of Gaza, Mohammed Aborjelaa, a 27-year-old content creator, told NBC News, “There is no electricity to operate the pumps.” There was no siren from the IDF's"Red Color" early warning system, which puts out location-specific alarms to communities targeted with rockets. That could mean the rocket was headed out to sea, in which case the country's Iron Dome defense system would not have attempted to intercept it.London Mayor Sadiq Khan said increased security measures will continue to be in place to protect places of worship in the British capital following violence in Israel and Gaza.
It’s unclear if everyone who’s here is going to be able to get a seat on that ship but many here tell us they had flight after flight that was canceled.
