The Wafa news agency is reporting that the eastern parts of the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza have come under Israeli bombardment.
A video shared on social media by photographer Mahmoud Shelha, and verified by Al Jazeera, shows residents and rescuers searching for survivors under collapsed concrete slabs.
A senior Hamas delegation has reportedly left Egypt’s capital Cairo where it was discussing a ceasefire proposal with mediators, Egyptian media reported.
Hamas has repeatedly said it will not accept a deal that does not include a permanent ceasefire and a complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza – which have been major sticking points in negotiations.
Earlier, the US secretary of state claimed that the Israeli proposal was an “extraordinarily generous” offer, while Egypt’s foreign minister said he was “hopeful” about a new proposal.
UK Foreign Minister David Cameron said the potential deal would include a 40-day ceasefire in exchange for the release of captives from Gaza.
“Stopping the attacks against Palestinians is not generous. The attack itself is a crime, so when you stop a crime, you can’t claim that it’s a generous action from the Israeli side,” senior Hamas official Osama Hamdan told Al Jazeera.
