Palestinians have been forced to flee Gaza City for another day following more Israeli evacuation orders as a US official said there is still "miles to go" until a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas.
White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said on Thursday that many details still needed to be ironed out following the most recent round of talks in Cairo and Doha with officials this week.
Palestinians in Gaza have been facing repeated attacks on civilian areas and the civil defence agency there said that some 60 bodies were found in Gaza City's Shujaiya district, devastated by a two-week Israeli offensive.
"Once the Israeli occupation forces withdrew from the Shujaiya neighbourhood, civil defence crews, with local residents, managed to recover about 60 martyrs up to now," agency spokesman Mahmud Basal said.
Israel said Wednesday it had ended its operation against Hamas militants in the district.
Lebanon's Hezbollah group and Israel continue to trade attacks across the border a day after the Shia militant group's leader warned that strikes would not stop until ally Hamas has decided.
