Palestinian water officials say these have not been working recently, reports Reuters.<\/p>\n Israel stopped all water and electricity supply to Gaza early in the war, later partly resuming it, though the pipeline network in the territory has been badly damaged.<\/p>\n Most water and sanitation infrastructure has been destroyed and pumps from the aquifer often rely on electricity from small generators \u2013 for which fuel is rarely available.<\/p>\n Palestinians wait to collect water amid shortages in Gaza City.

Average daily consumption in Israel is about 247 litres a day according to Israeli rights group B\u2019Tselem<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Bushra Khalidi<\/strong>, the humanitarian policy lead for the aid agency Oxfam<\/strong> in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories<\/a> said the average consumption in Gaza now was 3-5 litres a day.<\/p>\n Oxfam said last week that preventable and treatable water-borne diseases were \u201cripping through Gaza\u201d, with reported rates increasing by almost 150% over the past three months.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a005.23 EDT<\/p>\n Israeli<\/strong> officials have said Benjamin Netanyahu<\/strong> discussed a plan with the White House<\/strong> as it attempted to portray <\/a>Hamas<\/a><\/strong> as having walked away from ceasefire negotiations<\/a>, a claim denied by Hamas, which blamed Israel for the protracted impasse.<\/p>\n While the Trump administration has not commented on the Netanyahu proposal, it has been given some credence by leaked comments made by the US<\/strong> envoy Steve Witkoff<\/strong> to Israeli<\/strong> hostage families at the weekend, suggesting his proposal for a ceasefire in exchange for the release of half of the remaining living hostages had failed.<\/p>\n Witkoff added that Donald Trump<\/strong> \u201cnow believes that everybody should come home at once. No piecemeal deals,\u201d adding they were now pursuing an \u201call or nothing\u201d plan.<\/p>\n At the centre of the Netanyahu plan is the notion that, by surrounding areas where hostages are believed to be held, Israeli forces can raid those areas and rescue the captives, a policy that has broadly failed during the past two years of war.<\/p>\n Amid questions over the practicality of a wider offensive, some have speculated that Netanyahu\u2019s call may be more rhetorical than real in substance, aimed at keeping onboard far-right ministers who have demanded they be allowed to build settlements in Gaza<\/strong>.<\/p>\n A Palestinian<\/strong> official close to the talks and mediation said Israeli threats could be a way to pressure Hamas to make concessions at the negotiation table.<\/p>\n \u201cIt will only complicate the negotiation further, at the end, the resistance factions will not accept less than an end to the war, and a full withdrawal from Gaza,\u201d the official told Reuters, requesting not to be named.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a004.55 EDT<\/p>\n Targeting medics and hospitals in acts of war should be called \u201chealthocide\u201d, academics have urged, amid an increase in such attacks in recent years.<\/p>\n Health services are increasingly deliberately under attack and medics are facing violence and abuse in conflict zones around the world \u2013 in particular in Gaza<\/a><\/strong>, but also in Lebanon<\/strong>, Ukraine<\/strong>, Sudan<\/strong>, Syria<\/strong> and El Salvador<\/strong>.<\/p>\n This is despite the longstanding principle under international humanitarian law of medical neutrality, which protects healthcare workers and facilities during armed conflict and civil unrest, enabling them to provide medical care to those in need.<\/p>\n In a commentary published in the British Medical Journal<\/strong>, Dr Joelle Abi-Rached<\/strong> and colleagues of the American University of Beirut<\/strong>, Lebanon wrote:<\/p>\n Both in Gaza and Lebanon, healthcare facilities have not only been directly targeted, but access to care has also been obstructed, including incidents where ambulances have been prevented from reaching the injured, or deliberately attacked.<\/p>\n What is becoming clear is that healthcare workers and facilities are no longer afforded the protection guaranteed by international humanitarian law.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The authors cite data from Israel\u2019s full-scale invasion of Gaza, which has resulted in at least 986 medical workers\u2019 deaths.

Following the Hamas<\/strong>-led attacks that day, Israel barred foreign journalists from entering Gaza<\/a> \u2013 an unprecedented move in the history of modern conflict, marking one of the rare moments that reporters have been denied access to an active war zone.<\/p>\n A view of northern Gaza from the Jordanian aid plane.

We\u2019re going for the full conquest of the Gaza Strip \u2013 and defeating Hamas,\u201d the unnamed sources said, quoting Netanyahu.<\/p>\n By Tuesday, however, evidence had emerged of deep splits between Netanyahu and senior military officials, including the chief of staff, Eyal Zamir<\/strong>, who reportedly voiced opposition to the plan, prompting calls for his dismissal.<\/p>\n Absent at a security cabinet meeting, Netanyahu did, however, meet security officials, but not in a decision-making setting. His office said later that the Israeli military would carry out any decision made in cabinet.<\/p>\n During a visit to an army training facility earlier on Tuesday, Netanyahu said:<\/p>\n It is necessary to complete the defeat of the enemy in Gaza, to free all our hostages and to ensure that Gaza will no longer pose a threat to Israel.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a003.10 EDT<\/p>\n Gaza civil defence agency says 20 killed by overturned aid truck<\/p>\n Gaza\u2019s civil defence agency<\/strong> said on Wednesday that 20 people were killed when an aid truck overturned near the Nuseirat refugee camp<\/strong> in the central Gaza Strip<\/strong>.<\/p>\n \u201cTwenty people were killed and dozens injured around midnight last night in a truck carrying aid [that] overturned \u2026 while hundreds of civilians were waiting for aid,\u201d the agency\u2019s spokesperson Mahmud Bassal<\/strong> told Agence France-Presse (AFP).<\/p>\n Hamas<\/strong> accused Israel<\/strong> of forcing truck drivers to take unsafe routes to reach aid distribution centres. \u201cThis often results in desperate crowds swarming the trucks,\u201d its media office said in a statement.<\/p>\n Palestinians struggle to get food and humanitarian aid from the back of a truck as it moves along the Morag corridor, near Rafah, on Monday.
