Israel’s top military commander has said his country’s forces have surrounded Gaza City on three sides and that Israeli troops are operating inside the city.
Describing fierce fighting, Lt Gen Herzi Halevi, the Israel Defence Forces chief of staff, said:
[Israeli forces] are in the heart of northern Gaza, operating in Gaza City, surrounding it.
In an apparent warning to the Lebanese Shia militant group Hezbollah, with whom the IDF has been engaged in daily cross-border exchanges, Halevi added that “less than half the Israeli air force” was involved in airstrikes on Gaza with “most of its force ready, with bombs loaded should the need arise to attack on other fronts”.
Halevi was speaking before a speech by Hezbollah’s secretary general, Hassan Nasrallah, in Beirut on Friday, the first public remarks he has made since Hamas’s surprise attack on southern Israel on 7 October in which 1,400 Israelis and foreign nationals were massacred.
Israel and Hezbollah continued to exchange fire on Thursday across the Lebanese border, with a rocket fired from Lebanon hitting a house in the northern town of Kiryat Shmona. Hezbollah also claimed it has used two drones to target Israeli forces.

At least 27 people were killed in a blast near a UN school in the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, the Palestinian health ministry said.
AFP footage showed several casualties as crowds of people rushed to help them.
The Guardian has not been able to verify the death toll. The Hamas-run ministry has blamed an Israeli strike. There was no immediate comment from the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA), which runs the school.
Farther south, an Israeli strike hit a residential building in the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza earlier today, AP reported, citing a Gaza civil defence spokesperson. At least 15 people have been killed, the spokesperson said.

Israeli troops 'operating inside and surrounding Gaza City', says IDF
The chief of staff of Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has said troops are operating inside Gaza City and are surrounding it from several directions.
In a statement from an air force base, reported by the Times of Israel, Lt Gen Herzi Halevi said:
We have advanced another significant stage in the war. The forces are in the heart of northern Gaza, operating in Gaza City, surrounding it, and deepening [the ground offensive], and achievements.
Israeil forces are “fighting in a dense and complex urban area, that requires professional combat, and courage,” he said.
He added that his forces are fighting “in close quarters against a cruel enemy”, and that ground forces are accompanied by “accurate intelligence, with fire from the air and sea,” adding:
This partnership makes combat much more effective.

It is just past 5pm in Gaza City and in Tel Aviv. Here is a summary of the latest news:
At least 9,061 people have been killed by Israeli strikes on Gaza since 7 October, including 3,760 children, the health ministry in Gaza has said. It has not been possible for journalists to independently verify figures from either Israeli or Palestinian authorities.
Israeli forces say “dozens” of Hamas fighters killed in overnight operations. Israel’s air force has released a statement saying IDF fighters and armoured forces were fired on with anti-tank weapons and grenades in overnight operations.
Joe Biden has said there should be a “pause” in the fighting in Gaza to enable the release of hostages. The US president was speaking at a campaign fundraiser in Minneapolis on Wednesday when a woman shouted at him, telling him to call for a ceasefire. Biden responded: “I think we need a pause. A pause means give time to get the prisoners out.” White House officials later clarified he was referring to hostages being held by Hamas.
The lower parliament of Bahrain has announced Bahrain is severing all economic ties with Israel. The kingdom was one of the original signatories to the Abraham accords that normalised relations between Israel and some Arab states.
An Israeli strike has hit a residential building in the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza, killing at least 15 people, according to Gaza’s civil defence rescue organisation.
At least 195 Palestinians were killed in two rounds of Israeli airstrikes on Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp on Tuesday and Wednesday, a Hamas-run government media office said. Israel claims it killed senior Hamas officials in both attacks. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said Muhammad A’sar, the commander of Hamas’s anti-tank guided missile array, was targeted in Wednesday’s airstrike.
The UN human rights office said Israel’s airstrike on Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp on Tuesday could amount to war crimes. The agency said it had “serious concerns” given the “high number of civilian casualties and the scale of destruction” after the strikes. The UN’s humanitarian chief, Martin Griffiths, said the airstrikes were “just the latest atrocity to befall the people of Gaza” and said the world “seems unable, or unwilling, to act”.
The scale of tragedy in Gaza is “unprecedented”, the commissioner general for the main UN agency in Palestine has said after visiting the besieged territory for the first time since 7 October. Philippe Lazzarini of the UNRWA described his visit to the Gaza Strip as “one of the saddest days in my humanitarian work” and urged a “meaningful” humanitarian response to prevent people in Gaza from dying.
Four hundred people holding foreign passports are expected to cross the Rafah border crossing on Thursday, in addition to 60 wounded, according to one Egyptian official. The crossing opened for the first time on Wednesday.
More than 20,000 wounded people are still trapped in the Gaza Strip, according to Médecins Sans Frontières, despite the evacuation of some foreign passport holders and badly injured Palestinians across the border to Egypt on Wednesday.

Eighteen Israeli soldiers have been killed amid fierce fighting in Gaza, in a series of incidents that have underlined the mounting challenges facing the IDF in their attempts to push further into built-up areas of Gaza. The heaviest loss of life occurred when a “Namer” armoured personnel carrier was hit at about noon on Tuesday by an anti-tank guided missile, killing 11 soldiers and wounding several more.
Thai officials held direct talks with Hamas in Iran last week. Negotiators met Hamas officials in Tehran on 26 October and were given a pledge that the 22 Thais being held in Gaza would be released at the “right time”, Areepen Uttarasin told reporters in Bangkok on Wednesday.
The only cancer treatment hospital in Gaza has gone out of service after it ran out of fuel, health officials said on Wednesday. The director of the Turkish-Palestinian Friendship hospital told a press conference: “We tell the world: don’t leave cancer patients to a certain death due to the hospital being out of service.”

Deeply worrisome:
14 out of 36 hospitals and 2 specialty centers in #Gaza are non-functional due to lack of fuel as well as damage, attacks and insecurity.
The hospitals that remain open are overloaded with 40% more patients than they are designed to manage.
