Morning recap

Good morning MEE readers. On Wednesday morning, the second month of war in Gaza began with Israeli troops continuing to try to advance in northern Gaza against Hamas. One Israeli soldier was killed on Wednesday morning, while two others were wounded.

Meanwhile, the death toll from the Israeli air strike on a home in the Jabalia refugee camp has risen to at least nine Palestinians.

Here are some of the developments that you may have missed overnight:

• US Congress voted in favour of a resolution that censures Rashida Tlaib over her comments on the war in Gaza.

• Israeli forces stormed several West Bank towns, in what has become a nightly occurrence over the past month. These forces also stormed into Birzeit University.

• A situation report from Unrwa stated that another staff member for the agency was killed, bringing the total death toll to 89.

• Saudi Arabia said it's holding several summits in the next week, including one for Arab nations and one more for Muslim countries.

• Human Rights Watch said that the Israeli strike on an ambulance is "apparently unlawful" and that the incident requires a war crimes investigation.

Over the past month, we at MEE have been providing you with round-the-clock updates on what is going on in Gaza. We're going to continue to do just that and provide you with updates throughout the morning.
