• The number of children who have died as a result of malnutrition and inadequate medical care in Gaza has increased
• A UN team finds “reasonable grounds to believe” that sexual violence occurred during the October 7 attack on Israel but an official says the findings do not “in any way legitimize” further violence and calls for a ceasefire in Gaza as well as the release of captives.
• At least 30,534 Palestinians have been killed and 71,920 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. The revised death toll in Israel from the October 7 Hamas attacks stands at 1,139.
• More people in Gaza could starve to death than have been killed so far in Israeli attacks since 7 October, aid experts are warning – amid increasingly desperate calls for Israel to allow more aid into the territory, which is thought to be on the brink of famine.
