Bodies were brought to a hospital in Gaza City after the latest Israeli strikes on the area killed 22 people, including 11 children and three women, according to health officials.

JERUSALEM, July 15 (Reuters) - An Israeli scheme to move hundreds of thousands of already uprooted Palestinians to a so-called "humanitarian city" in Gaza has led politicians to spar with the defence establishment, but officials say a practical plan has yet to be crafted.

A planned “humanitarian city” inside Gaza intended to hold hundreds of thousands of Palestinians would be a “concentration camp,” former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has warned.

Video. At least 41 Palestinians, including children, were killed in Israeli strikes across Gaza, according to hospital officials.

An Israeli strike last week outside a health clinic that killed at least 15 people reignited long-standing concerns around the IDF's approach to proportionality.

Israel has agreed to significantly decrease its force presence in Gaza during the 60-day truce currently under discussion, according to an Arab diplomat and a source involved in mediation efforts, who tell The Times of Israel that the softened stance opens the door for an agreement in the coming days.

In an interview broadcast on 8th July 2025, the World at One’s Sarah Montague spoke to Baroness Helena Kennedy KC, a human rights lawyer who last year served as an expert on a panel convened by the Internation Criminal Court. Baroness Kennedy said the plan would force Palestinians into a “concentration camp”.

Several children were killed in an Israeli airstrike at a water distribution point in central Gaza Sunday, health officials said, one of several deadly incidents in the territory that come as ceasefire talks in Doha falter.
