Israel kills 64 Palestinians in Gaza, at least 9 of them aid seekers

Israeli airstrikes killed 64 Palestinians in Gaza today, including nine near a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation aid hub in Rafah, hospital sources said. The death toll at GHF centres has reached 743, Al Jazeera reported.

Hamas says it is ready for immediate talks on a 60-day ceasefire to allow aid access. Islamic Jihad supports talks but demands guarantees for a permanent truce.

The announcement comes ahead of Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s visit to Washington, where US President Trump is pushing to end the 21-month war.

Gaza’s Health Ministry reports 57,338 Palestinians killed and over 135,000 wounded. Israel recorded 1,139 deaths in the October 7 attacks, according to Al Jazeera.
