Hope has dimmed for a truce before Ramadan in the Israel-Palestine conflict which entered its sixth month with dozens more killed in Gaza, according to the health ministry in the territory.
According to the ministry, 83 more people had been killed over the previous day, adding to a toll it says has reached 30,800, mostly women and children, in a war that China called “a disgrace to civilisation”.
In the wasteland of Jabalia, northern Gaza, Palestinians gathered to receive meals at a distribution point.

Fighting began after an October 7 attack by Hamas on southern Israel that resulted in about 1,160 deaths, most of them civilians, according to Israeli figures.
Israel has responded with a relentless bombardment, alongside a ground offensive, that Hamas on Thursday said had continued with more than 30 air strikes across the territory.
