      An Israeli air strike has killed at least 14 Palestinians, including four children, in the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza, the Gaza Civil Defense says.

      Turkey has issued an export ban on Israel while France’s foreign minister and Human Rights Watch say targeted sanctions could be considered to push Israel to increase aid flows.

      UN’s humanitarian office and UNRWA say half of March food convoys to the north of Gaza, where malnutrition is most severe, were blocked.

      The US remains concerned about “Israel’s ability to move civilians out of harm’s way” in the proposed Rafah invasion, says US Secretary of State Antony Blinken.

      At least 33,360 Palestinians have been killed and 75,993 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. The death toll in Israel from Hamas’s October 7 attacks stands at 1,139, with dozens still held captive.

    Biden says thoughts with Gaza in Eid message

    The US president has expressed sympathy for Palestinians in Gaza in a message to Muslims marking Eid al-Fitr.

    “As Muslim families and communities come together for Eid al-Fitr, they are also reflecting on the pain felt by so many. My thoughts are with those around the world enduring conflict, hunger, and displacement, including in places such as Gaza and Sudan,” Biden said in a post on X.

    “Now is the time to recommit to the work of building peace and standing for the dignity of all.”
