以色列提议加沙休战期延长三天

 

But there has so far been no agreement from the militant¹ Hamas movement, which controls Gaza, as indirect talks continue in Cairo.

 

US President Barack Obama has said a more durable² truce³ requires risks being taken by leaders on both sides. 

 

He said trust needs to rebuilt, which was difficult after a time of violence.

 

"Long term, there has to be a recognition that Gaza cannot sustain itself permanently⁴ closed off from the world," said the US president, speaking in Washington. 

 

More than 1,800 Palestinians, mostly civilians⁶, and 67 Israelis, mainly soldiers, have died in the conflict.

 

A Thai national in Israel was also killed.

 

Gaza's health ministry⁷ listed 1,867 people as killed. The UN says more than 1,300 were civilians, and more than 400 were children.

In his first comments since the 72-hour truce began, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed Hamas for all of the civilian⁵ casualties, saying it had used civilians as human shields.
