Israel-Hamas war: latest updates
Israel pounded southern Gaza with airstrikes early on Sunday and said it would intensify attacks in the enclave’s north, as prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened his cabinet late on Saturday, reportedly to discuss an expected ground invasion of the Gaza Strip.
Palestinian media reported at least 11 people were killed in an Israeli strike in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, and that Israel was striking the southern city of Rafah.
