erritories Gaza’s civil defence rescue agency said yesterday that Israeli strikes killed at least 24 people, including 10 from the same family, after Hamas signalled its rejection of Israel’s latest ceasefire proposal.
Hamas chief negotiator dismissed what he called Israel’s “partial agreements” and called for a “comprehensive deal” to halt the 18-month-long war. Khalil al-Hayya also urged international pressure to end Israel’s complete blockade of Gaza that began on March 2.
The appeal comes after the United Nations warned of worsening conditions and shortages of medicine and other essentials for the Palestinian territory’s 2.4 million besieged people.
