At least 22 Palestinians have been killed, including many children and women, in overnight Israeli attacks on Rafah and Gaza City.

Hamas officials are set to travel to Egypt’s capital on Monday for fresh round of ceasefire talks.

Israeli military’s chief of staff approves plans for the “continuation of war” as hardline ministers warn Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu his government will collapse if a truce is agreed.
