Here are the main events of the Israel-Gaza war on day 326:
The World Health Organization has announced that Israel has agreed to limited “humanitarian pauses” to allow for vital polio vaccinations in Gaza, but they will only happen in “certain places at certain times”.
WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the pauses are set to begin on September 1, with teams on the ground needing the next 48 hours to ensure logistics are in place for the rollout of a vaccination campaign.
Israeli attacks killed at least 79 Palestinians and wounded 77 in the last 24 hours, the Gaza Health Ministry says, with a strike in central Gaza overnight killing nine members of the same family, including a pregnant woman and her unborn child.
China condemns Israel at UN Security Council meeting, saying: “We must never allow the same humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza to happen in the West Bank, which will turn the West Bank into another hell on earth.”
At least 40,602 people have been killed and 93,855 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks on October 7.
