Israeli Occupation aggression against Gaza has continued for 215 days, with ongoing raids causing casualties. In Rafah, south of Gaza, the Israeli Occupation army's actions resulted in fatalities and injuries.

Concurrently, amid the aggression and Israeli Occupation's intent to invade Rafah, Washington expressed hope for narrowing gaps between Hamas and Tel Aviv.

Wednesday, reports emerged of two Palestinians killed and others injured in an Israeli Occupation bombing targeting a motorcycle near Salah al-Din Gate in Rafah. Additionally, Israeli Occupation raids hit Nuseirat camp in central Gaza and artillery shelling struck Al-Zaytoun neighborhood in Gaza City.

UN Under-Secretary-General Martin Griffiths warned that Israeli Occupation evacuation orders in Rafah and ground operations would lead to more death and displacement.

Negotiations in Cairo are anticipated to resume after Hamas approved a ceasefire proposal by Qatari and Egyptian mediators. An American official stated that American, Qatari, and Egyptian negotiators are working to resolve differences regarding the deal, indicating a positive direction.

Cairo warned Tel Aviv of the escalation's danger in Rafah, emphasizing the need to complete negotiations for a truce.
