Overview

• President Donald Trump warned Hamas to stop killings in Gaza or face action, adding U.S. troops would not enter the enclave and hinting others could act under U.S. auspices.
• The U.N. human rights office reports at least 15 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire since the truce took effect, saying such attacks on civilians could constitute war crimes.
• Israel has returned roughly 120 of 360 Palestinian bodies pledged under the deal, while Hamas has delivered nine of 28 deceased hostages and cites rubble and unexploded ordnance as obstacles.
• Hamas and Gaza’s health ministry allege some bodies returned by Israel bear signs of torture, beatings and restraints, and they are urging urgent international investigations.
• U.S. officials say about 200 troops are in Israel to support monitoring of the agreement as Centcom’s Admiral Brad Cooper presses Hamas to cease violence and disarm, with reports and videos showing public executions and intra-Gaza clashes.
