The Israeli military has opposed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ‘humanitarian city’ in the Gaza Strip, which has been widely condemned as a concentration camp for Palestinians. The military has warned that the plan is not workable and will likely compromise ongoing ceasefire talks with Hamas.

A planned “humanitarian city” inside Gaza intended to hold hundreds of thousands of Palestinians would be a “concentration camp,” former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has warned.

Some commentators have suggested the real aim of floating the plan was to increase pressure on Hamas during ongoing ceasefire talks, while also appeasing right-wingers in the cabinet who oppose any truce.

Ten people, including children, were killed in a strike at a water collection point in central Gaza, according to health officials. Israel is investigating the incident.

The IDF has blamed a "technical error" for a Gaza strike that hit metres from the target, killing six children collecting water. Also: the prisoner who escaped hidden in a bag, and the beetles who love eating books.

Ten people were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Gaza on Sunday, including six children who were waiting to fill water containers near a refugee camp, emergency service workers said.
