Mourners react Thursday near the bodies of Palestinians who were killed in an Israeli airstrike at the Al Aqsa hospital in Deir al Balah, Gaza. Hamas said Thursday it will send a delegation to Egypt for further cease-fire talks, a new sign of progress in attempts by international mediators to hammer out an agreement between Israel and the militant group to end the war in Gaza. The brokers are hopeful that the deal will bring an end to a conflict that has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians, according to local health officials. They also hope a deal will avert an Israeli attack on Rafah, where more than half of Gaza’s 2.3 million people have sought shelter.
