"Israeli warplanes bombarded a house belonging to the al-Hawajri family in Jabalia, killing at least 13 people, and injuring around 15 others, most of whom were children and women,"Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el Sisi has agreed to open the Rafah crossing into besieged Gaza to allow a first batch of humanitarian aid trucks through, US President Joe Biden said.
Sisi and Biden discussed in a phone call ways to accelerate entry of humanitarian aid into besieged Gaza, Egyptian presidency said.
