自10月7日激进组织哈马斯对以色列发动前所未有的突然袭击以来，已有数千人死亡，数千人受伤，以色列以轰炸和全面封锁邻近的加沙地带进行报复，使该地区处于全面战争的边缘。
我们对这场冲突的了解
这场战争，现已进入第二阶段根据以色列的说法，这是第30天。
据以色列当局称，自10月7日以来，以色列已有至少1400人死亡，4629人受伤。据哈马斯控制的加沙卫生部称，在邻近的加沙地带，至少有9770人死亡，24808人受伤。
救援人员和官员担心，以色列呼吁从加沙北部撤离正在引发一场人道主义灾难，因为电力和其他供应已经被切断，为似乎迫在眉睫的地面进攻做准备。
人道主义组织敦促以色列取消撤离并同意停火，尽管该国坚持有权自卫，这是美国认可的权利。
约旦称向加沙空投了救援物资
约旦国王阿卜杜拉二世表示，他的国家在午夜用降落伞向加沙北部空投了救援物资。
“我们无畏的空军人员在午夜向加沙的约旦野战医院空投了紧急医疗援助，”X(原Twitter)上的一个帖子写道。“帮助在加沙战争中受伤的兄弟姐妹是我们的责任。我们将永远支持我们的巴勒斯坦兄弟。”
国王贴出了两张照片，照片中一个印有约旦国旗的箱子正被装上飞机。

以色列国防军仍在敦促加沙北部的居民向南迁移。

布林肯告诉记者，他与伊拉克总理的会晤富有成效，并表示他强调了防止加沙冲突蔓延的必要性。
布林肯说:“我非常清楚地表明，来自与伊朗结盟的民兵组织的袭击和威胁是完全不可接受的。”。“我们不想与伊朗发生冲突。我们已经说得很清楚了。但我们会采取必要措施保护我们的人员。”

Israel-Gaza live updates: Blinken, Abbas meet on restoring 'calm' in West Bank, State Department says
Thousands of people have died and thousands more have been injured since the militant group Hamas launched an unprecedented surprise attack on Israel on Oct. 7 and Israel retaliated with a bombing campaign and total siege of the neighboring Gaza Strip, leaving the region on the verge of all-out war.
What we know about the conflict
The war,which has now moved into its second stage, according to Israel, is in its 30th day.
At least 1,400 people have died and 4,629 others have been injured in Israel since Oct. 7, according to Israeli authorities. In the neighboring Gaza Strip, at least 9,770 have been killed and 24,808 have been injured, according to the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry.
Aid workers and officials fear that Israel's call for an evacuation of the northern part of Gaza is precipitating a humanitarian disaster as electricity and other supplies have been cut off in preparation for what appears to be an imminent ground offensive.
Humanitarian groups have urged Israel to call off the evacuation and agree to a cease-fire, even as the country has asserted a right to defend itself -- a right the United States endorses.
Jordan says it air-dropped aid into Gaza
King Abdullah II of Jordan says his country dropped aid by parachute into northern Gaza at midnight.
"Our fearless air force personnel air-dropped at midnight urgent medical aid to the Jordanian field hospital in Gaza," read a post on X (formerly Twitter). "This is our duty to aid our brothers and sisters injured in the war on Gaza. We will always be there for our Palestinian brethren."
The king posted two photos of a crate with the flag of Jordan on it being loaded onto an airplane.
IDF says it's making progress in Gaza operation
The Israel Defense Forces said Sunday it had "reached the seashore in the southern part of the city of Gaza and encircled the city of Gaza," calling the encirclement a "significant step" in the fight against Hamas.
"We will continue to attack strongly and continue to intensify our ground operation in the northern Gaza Strip and Greater Gaza City," the IDF said.
The IDF is still urging residents in northern Gaza to move south.
"We are intensifying our attack and this is already happening tonight significantly," the IDF warned.
Netanyahu: No cease-fire without return of hostages
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday at the Ramon Air Force Base in Israel that "there will be no cease-fire without the return of the hostages."
Israeli officials say 241 people have been taken hostage.
Blinken meets with Iraqi prime minister
Secretary of State Antony Blinken traveled to Iraq to meet with Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani on Sunday following the secretary's visits to Israel, Jordan and the West Bank.
Blinken told reporters that his meeting with the Iraqi prime minister was productive and said he emphasized the need to prevent spillover from the conflict in Gaza.
"I made very clear that the attacks, the threats coming from militia that are aligned with Iran are totally unacceptable," Blinken said. "We're not looking for conflict with Iran. We've made that very clear. But we'll do what's necessary to protect our personnel."
"We're working very hard to make sure that the conflict in Gaza does not escalate, does not spread to other places, whether it's here, whether it's elsewhere in the region," he said.
Blinken was asked about Arab leaders' instance that nothing short of a total cease-fire would be acceptable.
"I think everyone would welcome humanitarian pauses -- there's no doubt about that," Blinken responded.
He said pauses "advance things that we're all trying to accomplish," including getting more humanitarian aid into Gaza, getting people out of Gaza and getting hostages home.
On his meeting with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, Blinken said the PA was "playing a very important role right now in the West Bank in trying to keep stability there."
