Four Palestinians killed in an Israeli drone strike on Gaza City, one killed by Israel’s navy off the coast.
Israeli tank and gunboat fire reported in southern Rafah.
The US has proposed a “bridge” plan to extend the ceasefire in Gaza into April and allow time to negotiate a permanent end to Israel’s war.
Hamas has accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of fearing the successful implementation of the ceasefire and said his siege of the Strip is starving residents and Israeli captives.
Gaza’s Health Ministry says at least 48,524 Palestinians have been killed and 111,955 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza. Gaza’s Government Media Office has updated its death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of Palestinians missing under the rubble are presumed dead. At least 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the October 7, 2023, attacks, and more than 200 were taken captive.
