Gaza
\nIsraeli forces intensified attacks across the Gaza Strip, killing at least 13 women and children in the Nuseirat refugee camp and destroying a residential tower in Rafah.
\nIn isolated northern Gaza, an infant and a young woman died of malnutrition, taking the number of known starvation deaths to 25.
\nCanada and Sweden restored funding to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, after the organisation accused Israel of forcing some of its staff to make false statements about their involvement in Hamas.
\nIsrael\u2019s Mossad intelligence agency said truce talks are ongoing as Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh called on Israel\u2019s allies to \u201cstop this heinous war on Gaza\u201d in a message ahead of Ramadan.
\nAt least 30,960 Palestinians have been killed and 72,524 injured in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. The death toll in Israel from Hamas\u2019s October 7 attacks stands at 1,139, and dozens continue to be held captive.
\nAn elderly man who survived an Israeli attack on a house in the Nuseirat refugee camp said all those in the building were women and children, except for him.
\n\u201cTo the Israelis, there is no safe zone all over the Gaza Strip. Not a single inch is safe. The Israelis are lying. We were told that from the Gaza Valley southwards is safe. We were forced to take shelter here. We are all civilians,\u201d the man, who did not give his name, told Al Jazeera.
\n\u201cAll those inside the house were women and children. I was the oldest and the only male among them. I repeat, all were women and children,\u201d he said.
\nSome 21 displaced Palestinians were sheltering in the building. At least 13 of them were killed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
