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
这场战争现在搬家了进入第二阶段，据以色列称，已经过了一个月。
据以色列官员称，自10月7日以来，以色列已有至少1400人死亡，6900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10，812人死亡，另有26，905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。
任何暂停战斗的计划都必须与联合国协调执行
联合国秘书长发言人斯特凡·杜哈里奇(Stéphane Dujarric)表示，任何短期暂停加沙战斗的计划都必须与联合国协调实施。
在联合国发表评论之前，白宫表示，以色列同意每天在加沙北部暂停四小时，让平民逃离。
杜加里克说:“如何停止战斗，以及如何实现人道主义目的，需要与联合国协调，特别是在时间和地点问题上。”“显然，为了人道主义目的安全地完成这项工作，必须得到冲突各方的同意，才能真正有效。”
800多辆救援卡车已经抵达加沙
一名过境官员说，周四另有65辆援助卡车通过拉法过境点进入加沙。
随着人道主义危机的恶化，现在共有821辆援助卡车进入加沙。
632名外国护照持有者周四从加沙进入埃及
一名拉法边境官员称，周四有632名外国护照持有者从加沙进入埃及。
该官员说，12名受伤的巴勒斯坦人和他们的10名家庭成员也于周四进入埃及。

国会进步人士拒绝人道主义暂停，要求停火
几位国会进步人士继续说道呼吁停火同时反对四小时的人道主义停火。
“我们需要的是停止轰炸，”民主党众议员柯里·布什说。周四在美国国会大厦外举行的新闻发布会上，反战老兵也加入了支持停火的行列。
此前，国家安全委员会发言人约翰·柯比星期四宣布，以色列将开始在加沙北部地区每天暂停战斗四小时。
“四个小时?我们不想要四个小时。我们不想要16个小时。我们不想要22个。我们现在就要停火，”布什说。
民主党众议员李夏苏。他说，人道主义暂停并不能解释被困在加沙的200万人。
“任何没有考虑到这仍然是一种集体惩罚的停顿，一旦四个小时结束，都是不够的，”李说。
Israel-Gaza live updates: Israel agrees to 4-hour pauses in Gaza each day, White House 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 hasnow movedinto its second stage, according to Israel, has passed the one-month mark.
In Israel, at least 1,400 people have been killed and 6,900 others have been injured since Oct. 7, according to Israeli officials. In the neighboring Gaza Strip, at least 10,812 people have been killed and another 26,905 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.
Any plans for pauses in fighting must be carried out in coordination with UN
Any plans for short-term pauses in the fighting in Gaza must be carried out in coordination with the United Nations, said Stéphane Dujarric, spokesperson for the U.N. secretary-general.
The U.N.'s comments come after the White House said Israel agreed to daily four-hour pauses in northern Gaza to allow civilians to escape.
"How any such halt in the fighting, and how it would work for humanitarian purposes, will need to be coordinated with the United Nations, especially on the issue of timings and location," Dujarric said. "And obviously in order for this to be done safely for humanitarian purposes, it would have to be agreed with all parties to the conflict to be truly effective."
Over 800 aid trucks have reached Gaza
Another 65 aid trucks entered Gaza through the Rafah border crossing on Thursday, a border crossing official said.
A total of 821 aid trucks have now crossed into Gaza as the humanitarian crisis worsens.
632 foreign passport holders cross from Gaza into Egypt Thursday
A Rafah border crossing official said 632 foreign passport holders crossed from Gaza into Egypt on Thursday.
Twelve wounded Palestinians and 10 of their family members also crossed into Egypt on Thursday, the official said.
Congressional progressives reject humanitarian pause, demand cease-fire
Several Congressional progressives continuedcalls for a cease-firein Gaza while pushing back against a four-hour humanitarian pause.
"What we need is to stop the bombing," Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., said outside of the U.S. Capitol on Thursday during a press conference while joined by anti-war veterans in support of a cease-fire.
The event comes after National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby announced Thursday that Israel will start to implement four-hour pauses in fighting in areas of northern Gaza each day.
"Four hours? We don't want four hours. We don't want 16 hours. We don't want 22. We want a cease-fire now," Bush said.
Rep. Summer Lee, D-Pa., said a humanitarian pause does not account for the 2 million people stuck in Gaza.
"Any pause that doesn't take into account that this is still a collective punishment once the four hours has ended is not sufficient," Lee said.
