Morning update

Good morning Middle East Eye readers,

Here are some of the latest updates from Israel’s war on Gaza:

• Ireland said it was “appalled” by the Israeli air strike on al-Ahli hospital in Gaza, which led to the death of a Palestinian child, and the forced evacuation of wounded people. Irish Prime Minister Micheal Martin described the assault as part of a “wider and deeper unacceptable development in modern warfare”
•  A meeting is being held in Cairo between Hamas, Egyptian and Qatari mediators to discuss a ceasefire deal in Gaza, after Israel broke it in March. The Hamas delegation described its approach to the talks as “responsible and positive”, and said that it was “open to any new proposals so long as they were based on ending the war and ensuring a complete Israeli withdrawal from Gaza”
• At least three Palestinians have been wounded as Israeli troops raided the Jalazone refugee camp and forced a number of Palestinians from their homes in the Nur Shams refugee camp, according to al-Jazeera Arabic
• The Washington Post reported that the US State Department had decided that there was no proof that links Rumeysa Ozturk, a student who was detained in March by masked immigration agents on the street, to antisemitic activities or support for a “terrorist” organisation, and that there was no sufficient evidence to revoke her visa
• At least six people were killed and 26 others were wounded in suspected US air strikes around Sanaa, according to the Yemeni Houthi militant group. The Houthis also claimed shooting down an American MQ-9 Reaper drone.
