Negotiations to secure a ceasefire tied to the release of hostages held by Hamas are 'getting closer' to a deal, according to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who is in Egypt to meet with Arab leaders today and will head to Israel on Friday. The Israeli military said it killed more than 140 'terrorists' in its raid on Gaza City's Al-Shifa hospital, which will continue for a fourth day.
Israeli forces have also detained Palestinian journalists and health workers at the hospital, according to eyewitness accounts. Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his government will soon approve a plan for the evacuation of civilians from Gaza's southern city of Rafah, where about 1.4 million people are sheltering. But he suggested the planned military offensive into the city was not imminent.
