- Civilians fleeing Gaza City say people were shot dead during forced evacuations after the entire population – 300,000 people – was ordered to leave by Israel’s military.
- Ceasefire talks are set to continue in Egypt as efforts to end the nine-month war are hampered by intensified Israeli attacks.
