In the seventh month of a devastating air and ground war against the Gaza Strip's ruling Islamist group Hamas, Israeli forces also resumed bombarding northern and central areas of the enclave, as well as east of Khan Younis in the south.

Israeli tank fire on the main road near the town of Al-Zawyda in central Gaza killed four people, local medics said. Such outages have compounded the obstacles confronting efforts to get emergency aid to stricken civilians and provide medical care at the few centres not yet shattered by fighting. Western countries, including Israel's closest ally the United States, have pleaded with it to hold back from attacking the city, saying this could wreak a humanitarian disaster given the presence of many displaced people with only rudimentary shelter and little food or access to medical care.
