Israel's military has launched numerous strikes on the Gaza Strip as pressure mounts for a cease-fire agreement. The Israeli military claims to have hit over 100 targets, including sites from which militants had fired projectiles towards Israeli territory. The Gaza health ministry reported that 88 Palestinians were killed in the strikes, but the figures do not distinguish between civilians and combatants. Both Hamas and Israel have sent delegations to Qatar to meet with mediators in an attempt to reach a cease-fire agreement that would include the release of hostages held in Gaza. The discussions have been making slow progress, with Hamas focusing on a complete cease-fire and the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip, while Israel has not committed to ending the war.
