Overview

• Israeli forces continued heavy strikes in Gaza City, with Hamas-run health officials reporting at least 60 people killed.
• The military said it destroyed tunnels and booby-trapped buildings, hit more than 120 targets and killed over 30 fighters.
• Hamas posted photos of 47 captives labeled “Ron Arad,” warning their lives are at risk as Israel has shut almost all southern escape routes.
• Israel says about 480,000 people have left the city since early September, while Hamas claims roughly 300,000 have fled and about 900,000 remain.
• UK media report an imminent decision to recognize a Palestinian state, alongside planned recognitions by France, Canada, Australia, Belgium and Portugal, as large protests in Israel call for a hostage deal and an end to the war.
