"Massive Internal Displacement Crisis Unfolds in Israel, with Half a Million Displaced: Live Updates"

The mother of French-Israeli hostage Mia Schem has called on world leaders to free her daughter after Hamas released a video featuring footage of her being held captive. French President Emmanuel Macron condemned Hamas for airing the video and demanded her unconditional release. Talks are underway to free hostages held by Hamas, and Turkey has announced that Egypt will host a summit on the Gaza conflict. The situation in Gaza is worsening, with only four or five days of food stocks left in the shops, according to the World Food Programme. The UN human rights office expressed concern that Israel's siege of Gaza and its evacuation order could amount to the forcible transfer of civilians, a crime against humanity.
