• The military says several Gaza City towers were used by Hamas for surveillance, observation posts and tunnel access as Israel pushes to seize what it calls the group’s last major stronghold.
• Famine conditions persist, with Gaza health authorities reporting at least 422 malnutrition-related deaths since the war began, including 145 children.
• Rubio’s two-day visit follows an Israeli strike in Doha that drew U.S. displeasure and widespread condemnation, and an Arab-Islamic summit in Qatar on Monday is set to rally support for Doha.
• Displacement is surging as Israel urges departures from Gaza City, with Israeli officials citing roughly 250,000 people leaving and U.N. estimates closer to 100,000, while about 48 hostages remain in Gaza and roughly 20 are believed alive.
