LIVE UPDATES: IDF Strikes Hamas Naval Facilities Used For Attacks on Israeli Coastline

The death toll from Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip has reached 1,200 people, and the number of injured people has topped 5,600 people, a spokesperson for the Palestinian Health Ministry said Thursday.

The office added that the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East now hosts a total of 218,597 displaced people, or 65%, in 92 schools, and 14,837 internally displaced people have taken refuge at 18 Palestinian Authority schools.

He said the conversation lasted 45 minutes.

Footage reportedly showing a woman walking toward her child and Israeli soldiers aired by Qatari media was verified for authenticity before being aired. The Al-Qassam Brigades freed the woman and children after a firefight with other troops.

"The Department of State raised the Travel Advisory Level for Israel and the West Bank to Level 3 - Reconsider Travel... The Travel Advisory for Gaza remains Level 4 - Do Not Travel," the release said Wednesday. "Violence can occur in Israel and the West Bank and Gaza without warning. There has been a marked increase in demonstrations throughout Israel, some with little or no warning."

"The Europeans and the United States tried to put pressure on President Abbas to condemn the Al-Aqsa Flood operation carried out by Hamas, but he refused. Europe and America have threatened to cut off aid to the Palestinian Authority," the source said.

“The one thing that I did say [in a call with Netanyahu] that it is really important that Israel, all the anger, frustration, I just cannot explain it, that exists, is that they [the Israelis] operate by the rules of war. There are rules of war,” Biden said on Wednesday.

"Yes, the [UN Security Council] Presidency convened a meeting on Friday at 3:00 p.m.," the diplomat said.

The minister was cited as saying the latest developments "in the occupied Palestinian territories" were "a completely Palestinian initiative" and a reaction to Israel's "war crimes and extremist moves."

The report also said the supplemental request will include additional funding to bolster US border security.

"I know many of you have been asking about expressing some interest in the idea of safe passage in Gaza for civilians, let me just say right up front, we're actively discussing this with our Israeli and Egyptian counterparts, we support safe passions for civilians, civilians are not to blame for what Hamas is done," Kirby said during a press briefing at the White House.

"We are in active conversations with members of Congress about additional funding for Ukraine and for Israel," Kirby said during a press briefing.

"It is also an important message that any nation or organization hostile to Israel should not try to utilize the situation we now see and we also see that for instance the United States has increased its military presence in the region, it also sends a clear message of deterrence to prevent escalation of this conflict," Stoltenberg told a press conference, following the first say if the NATO defense ministerial meeting in Brussels.

Biden, Harris and Netanyahu agreed to maintain their regular communications to better navigate through the multifaceted challenges faced by Israel, the statement added.
