Israel denies firing on civilians collecting food at Gaza aid site, blaming Hamas for obstructing distribution and endangering residents amid false reports of Israeli attacks.
Israeli U.N. Ambassador Danny Danon accuses the U.N. of using threats and "mafia-like" tactics against NGOs supporting the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.
A U.K. government document flagged the possibility that Gaza cash assistance could benefit Hamas, a claim British officials deny. But critics say the issue remains unresolved.
Hamas agrees to release of 10 living hostages and return the bodies of 18 more, but terms that include a permanent ceasefire and complete Israeli withdrawal from Gaza have been deemed unacceptable by the U.S. and Israel.
