Israel sustained its aerial and ground bombardment of Gaza, killing dozens of people, as fighting raged around Gaza City's main Al Shifa hospital, Palestinian officials and the Israeli military said.

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has approved a new round of Gaza ceasefire talks to take place in Doha and Cairo, his office said, days after the negotiations appeared stalled.

Palestinian health officials said two Israeli strikes on the Al-Shejaia suburb in eastern Gaza City killed 17 people, while an Israeli air strike on a house in the Al-Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza killed eight people. Al Shifa, Gaza's biggest hospital before the war, had been one of the few healthcare facilities even partially operational in north Gaza before the latest fighting. It had also been housing displaced civilians.

In the far south of Gaza, Israel continued its bombardment in Rafah, where over half of Gaza's 2.3 million people were sheltering. The war erupted after Hamas militants broke through the border, killing 1,200 people and abducting 253 hostages, according to Israeli tallies.
