Israel again pounded Gaza on Friday, nearly 12 weeks into the war that has devastated much of the besieged Palestinian territory and forced many hundreds of thousands to flee their homes.
As a Hamas delegation visited Cairo to discuss an Egyptian plan to end the fighting, UN chief Antonio Guterres reiterated his call for "an immediate humanitarian ceasefire" in the bloodiest ever Gaza war triggered by the October 7 attack on Israel by the Palestinian militants.
