Biden and Netanyahu speak amid pressure over Rafah and ceasefire
There are conflicting local media reports on the number of people killed overnight by Israeli airstrikes on Rafah, with some outlets putting the number as high as 22.
Israel’s military, meanwhile, despite continued diplomatic efforts to avert futher fighting, is still preparing troops on the border with Gaza, seemingly to enter Rafah and the south of the Gaza Strip, where one million displaced people are estimated to be sheltering.
