08:48 GMT- Israel will have “overall security responsibility” in Gaza: Netanyahu

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel will have “overall security responsibility” in Gaza for an indefinite period after its war with Hamas, the clearest indication yet that Israel plans to maintain control over the coastal enclave that is home to some 2.3 million Palestinians.

In an interview with ABC News that aired late Monday, Netanyahu expressed openness to “little pauses” in the fighting to facilitate the release of some of the more than 240 captives seized by Hamas in its October 7 attack into Israel.

But he ruled out any general cease-fire without the release of all the hostages, and the White House said there was no agreement with United States President Joe Biden's call for a broader humanitarian pause after a phone call between the leaders on Monday.

4:45 GMT - The UN Security Council failed again to agree on a resolution on the monthlong Israeli assault on Gaza.

Despite more than two hours of closed-door discussions Monday, differences remained. The US is calling for “humanitarian pauses” while many other council members are demanding a “humanitarian ceasefire” to deliver desperately needed aid and prevent more civilian deaths in Gaza.

“We talked about humanitarian pauses and we’re interested in pursuing language on that score,” US deputy ambassador Robert Wood told reporters after the meeting. “But there are disagreements within the council about whether that’s acceptable.”

It said “medical examinations were conducted on all cases with precise diagnoses and their total number reached 17 wounded individuals.”

2:10 GMT - Netanyahu: Israel to take 'overall security responsibility' of Gaza after war

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that his country will take "overall responsibility" of Gaza's security for an indefinite period after its war with Hamas ends.

"When we don't have that security responsibility, what we have is the eruption of Hamas terror on a scale that we couldn't imagine," he added.

2:00 GMT - Palestine Red Crescent says Al Quds Hospital to run out of fuel in 48 hours
