Weather’s role in wildfires in Atlantic Canada | SaltWire #weather #climatechange #wildfireseasonCAIRO - Washington said it was trying to keep Israel and the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas engaged"if only virtually" in Gaza truce efforts as a U.N. agency warned that humanitarian aid stocks in the devastated enclave have hit"the bottom of the barrel."

The White House called the end of the talks, which CIA Director William Burns was helping to mediate,"deeply regrettable," but said the U.S. believed the differences were surmountable. The White House said it was closely watching the Israeli operations"with concern," but they appeared to be localized around the shuttered Rafah crossing and did not reflect a large-scale invasion.

But the administration also said that due to the chaos of the war it could not verify specific instances where the use of those arms might have violated international law, falling short of making a definitive assessment on the issue. Supplies were already running short and aid operations could halt within days as fuel and food stocks are used up, U.N. aid agencies said.
