GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Shifa Hospital was once the cornerstone of the health system in the Gaza Strip. Now, after 21 months of war and two major Israeli raids, it barely functions.

Israel has created “green zones” and “red zones” to distinguish between safe and dangerous areas. There’s little difference.

A senior Israeli official predicts Israel and Hamas will come to a ceasefire in the "next week or two," a longer timeframe than previously expected. Until a ceasefire can be reached, fighting goes on and Israel continues its airstrikes.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally ordered the Israeli military to create plans for the creation of a giant concentration camp on the ruins of Rafah, where the population of Gaza would be moved in preparation for their forcible expulsion,

The United Nations has delivered fuel to the Gaza Strip for the first time in more than four months, as Israel's military campaign in the coastal territory continues to claim dozens of lives, according to Palestinians.

When the onetime director of a Gaza Strip hospital was killed by an Israeli airstrike, he joined a growing list of prominent Palestinian doctors who have died during 21 months of war that has devastated the territory’s health system.

Israel’s defense minister said he told the military to advance plans for what he called a “humanitarian city” built on the ruins of Rafah in southern Gaza, according to reports in Israeli media.

One by one, displaced Gazans would pass through security checkpoints where they would be searched for weapons or signs of links to Hamas before being allowed into a new “humanitarian city” built on ruins.

At Gaza's largest hospital, doctors say crippling fuel shortages have led them to put several premature babies in a single incubator as they struggle to keep the newborns alive while Israel presses on with its military campaign.
