US Secretary of State Rubio arrives in Israel as strikes in Gaza City intensify | DW News

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is in Israel for talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and foreign minister Gideon Saar. His visit comes after the US scolded Israel for launching an attack in Qatar, a US ally. Rubio stated talks would be held on the impact that the strike, which targeted Hamas leaders, has had on efforts for a truce in Gaza.

Meanwhile, people in Gaza City are fleeing their homes as the Israeli military continues to ramp up its offensive there. At least 32 people were killed across Gaza City in a series of strikes on Saturday. Israel has called on residents to evacuate and head to what it calls a "humanitarian zone" in Al-Mawasi near Khan Younis in the territory's south.
