The number of Americans killed in the Israel-Hamas conflict has grown to 30. Currently, 13 U.S. citizens are missing.

The Israel Defense Forces says Hamas and other Palestinian militants are holding 199 hostages in Gaza, which is higher than previous estimates.

The number of Americans killed in the Israel-Hamas conflict ignited a week ago by the terrorist group has grown to 30, according to a U.S. State Department spokesperson. Currently, 13 U.S. citizens remain unaccounted for. While many have fled their homes, conditions for Palestinians in Gaza are dire. Residents are packed into hospitals and schools, seeking shelter as they run low on food, water and supplies. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians sheltering in United Nations facilities are on less than a quart of water per day, according to The Associated Press.

After a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken Sunday, Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi said he’s agreed to open the Rafah crossing — a border between Egypt and the Gaza strip — to assist in the evacuation of Palestinians. There’s still confusion about when and for how long that crossing will be open.
