The United Nations says it has had to temporarily suspend its aid operation in the Gaza Strip because of Israeli military evacuation orders in the centre of the Palestinian territory.
A senior UN official told reporters that its humanitarian staff had been unable to operate on Monday because of safety concerns, but stressed that UN agencies would not be leaving Gaza and were trying to find somewhere to operate safely.
Elsewhere in the region at least five people, including two children, have been killed in an Israeli air strike on an urban refugee camp in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian health ministry says.
The Israel Defence Forces confirmed the strike, on Nur Shams camp near the city of Tulkarm, saying it had targeted what it called the command room of a "terror cell".
The UN said last Wednesday that 128 Palestinians, including 26 children, had been killed in Israeli air strikes in the West Bank since 7 October.
