Israeli military attacks have continued across the Strip, including in Rafah, where heavy fighting has been reported, and Israeli forces have destroyed two residential homes, killing at least 13 people.

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has addressed the Security Council on the “tragic” events in the Middle East, noting the “catastrophic” humanitarian situation in Gaza.
