Մերձավոր Արևելք
Reuters. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday (April 8) that a date has been set for an Israeli invasion of Rafah, Gaza's last refuge for displaced Palestinians, without disclosing that date.
He made his statement as a new round of ceasefire talks was ongoing in Cairo.
A Hamas official said on Monday no progress had been made at the Cairo meeting on a ceasefire in the Gaza war after the Egyptian hosts said headway had been achieved on the agenda.
Israel and Hamas sent teams to Egypt on Sunday after the arrival on Saturday of CIA Director William Burns, whose presence underlined rising U.S. pressure for a deal that would free Israeli hostages held in Gaza and get aid to Palestinian civilians. Qatari representatives also attended.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced Monday that the Palestinian death toll has risen to 33,207 as a result of ongoing Israeli attacks.
During the past 24 hours, the Israeli army killed 32 Palestinians and wounded 47 others, bringing the total death toll to 33,207 and injuries to 75,933 since the Palestine-Israel conflict broke out on Oct. 7, 2023, said the ministry in a statement.
Meanwhile, at least 67 bodies have been recovered in the southern Khan Younis city since the Israeli army withdrew from southern Gaza, according to the state-run Palestine TV.
