STORYLINE:
Israeli strikes on the southern city of Khan Younis killed at least seven Palestinians overnight into Thursday, according to hospital officials and an Associated Press journalist who counted the bodies.
At the start of July, the Israeli military ordered parts of the city to be evacuated.
On Monday, it added the Muwasi humanitarian zone and other parts of the crowded south to be evacuated.
Renewed hostilities and mass displacement followed.
Officials from Egypt, Israel, the United States and Qatar were expected to meet Thursday in Doha with the aim of resuming talks for a proposed three-phase cease-fire to end the war between Israel and Hamas and free the remaining hostages.
But an Israeli official said Israel’s negotiating team was delayed and would likely be dispatched next week.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed Congress in Washington on Wednesday as thousands of protesters gathered near the U.S. Capitol to denounce the war.
Hamas slammed the speech Thursday and accused Netanyahu of obstructing efforts to end the war and return the hostages.
Netanyahu has signaled that a cease-fire deal could be taking shape after nine months of war, but during his fiery speech to Congress, he vowed to press forward with Israel’s war until he achieves “total victory.”
Palestinians displaced by the Israeli military’s latest order to leave parts of the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis say they are sleeping in the streets.
The Health Ministry in Gaza says more than 39,100 Palestinians have been killed in the war.
The war began with an assault by Hamas militants on southern Israel on Oct. 7 that killed 1,200 people, most of them civilians, and took about 250 hostages.
