JERUSALEM: The Israeli military took control of the vital Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt on Tuesday, pushing into the southern Gazan town after a night of air strikes and as prospects for a ceasefire deal hung in the balance. The Palestinian militant group Hamas said late on Monday it had agreed to a ceasefire proposal from mediators seven months into the war that has pushed more than a million Gazans into the south of the enclave. Israel said the terms did not meet its demands and launched a military operation in Rafah.

Israel’s army has told Palestinians being displaced from Rafah where they should go. They say the areas are unlivable.
