Evening recap
Our live blog will shortly be closing until tomorrow morning.
Here are the day's key developments:
- Heavy rain flooded thousands of tents belonging to the displaced in Gaza on Friday. Citing devastation and "pools of mud," Hamas urged the ceasefire guarantors to push Israel to meet its aid commitments to Palestinians in the enclave.
- The Israeli army said it had killed a Palestinian man after he crossed the so-called “Yellow Line” in southern Gaza - an area that Israel designates as under its control - and moved towards Israeli soldiers.
- Israel has transferred the bodies of 15 Palestinians to Gaza, officials at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis said, a day after the remains of Israeli captive Meny Godard were returned.
- The New York Times reported that Steve Witkoff, who is US President Donald Trump's peace envoy, is intending to meet directly with Hamas chief Khalil el-Hayya "soon" to discuss the implementation of the Gaza ceasefire.
- Indonesia's defence minister has announced that its military has trained 20,000 troops for healthcare and construction efforts in Gaza.
- Saudi Arabia condemned a series of attacks by Israelis on Palestinian holy sites, warning that silence from the international community is undermining the international order itself.
