Good morning Middle East Eye readers,

Here are the latest developments from the ongoing 18-month Israeli war on Gaza, which resumed 41 days ago:

  • Ongoing Israeli air strikes killed at least six people on Sunday, including four children and a fisherman, according to local media reports.

  • A senior Israeli official told Israel Hayom that the army may "expand the scope of fighting" if negotiations fail to make progress within two weeks, warning of a potential large-scale mobilisation of reserve forces.

  • Hamas announced on Saturday that its delegation had departed Cairo after presenting Egyptian mediators with a proposal for a comprehensive agreement that encompasses a ceasefire, prisoner exchange, humanitarian relief and reconstruction.

  • In Lebanon, an Israeli drone strike killed one man in the south, marking the latest breach of the November ceasefire.
