The number of people killed as a result of Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip has increased to 1,537 and 6,612 people were injured. This was reported by the Ministry of Health of Palestine.
The United States said it does not plan to go to war with Israel, which does not want it either.
"There is no intention, no plans, and frankly no desire on the part of the Israelis to have our military involved in this conflict," said John Kirby, the White House National Security Council's strategic communications coordinator.
Egypt expressed readiness to act as a mediator between Israel and Palestine without any preconditions. This was announced by the President of Egypt, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.
