Borrell: EU states demand immediate ceasefire for Gaza. More than 29,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since the war began more than four months ago.

The Israeli army took control of Nasser Hospital, one of the larger hospitals in the coastal area. The army said hundreds of terrorists and terror suspects who were hiding in the clinic had been captured. Some of them are said to have posed as medical staff. “This shows that Hamas has lost its fighting spirit,” Defense Minister Joav Galant said.
