Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says intense fighting in Gaza is nearly over, but insists the war will continue even if a ceasefire deal is agreed with Hamas. The Palestinian group says his comments show he rejects the proposal laid out by US President Joe Biden on May 31.
At least 37,626 people have been killed and 86,098 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza since October 7. The death toll in Israel from the Hamas-led attacks stands at 1,139, with dozens of people still held captive in Gaza.
