Israel kills 24 in Gaza; Hamas accepts new truce by Egypt, Qatar

Israeli forces launch a new ground assault on Rafah in southern Gaza as the death toll from Israel’s attacks on Saturday rises to 24.

Israel has made a "counter-proposal," according to the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, following Hamas' announcement that it had agreed to a revised ceasefire proposal proposed by Egypt and Qatar, Alzajeera reported.

At least 50,277 Palestinians have been reported dead and 114,095 wounded in Israel's war on Gaza, says the Gaza Health Ministry. As reported by Gaza's Government Media Office, thousands of Palestinians who went missing beneath the debris are most likely dead, and the death toll has been updated to nearly 61,700, according to Alzajeera.

Over 200 people were captured and at least 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the October 7, 2023, strikes led by Hamas.
