Blinken Meets Netanyahu to Push for ‘concrete Steps’ to Protect Gaza Civilians

The US’s top diplomat is meeting Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – he’s seeking “concrete steps” to minimise harm to civilians in Gaza

Earlier, Israel’s military said it had “completed the encirclement of Gaza City” and was attacking Hamas infrastructure

About 100 British nationals are on the list of people approved to leave Gaza today via the Rafah crossing into Egypt

The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza says more than 9,000 people have been killed in the Strip since 7 October

Israel began its operation after Hamas killed more than 1,400 people in Israel and kidnapped more than 200 others

Meanwhile, the leader of Lebanese Islamist group Hezbollah – considered a terrorist group in the UK and US – will speak later as the group intensifies its attacks on Israel

The Israeli government says it’s sending Gazans working in Israel back to the besieged enclave, but has not given details
