    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Benjamin Netanyahu has insisted on Hamas’s destruction as part of an Israeli plan presented by the US president, Joe Biden, to end the Gaza war.

    I welcome @POTUS Biden’s initiative & encourage all parties to seize this opportunity for a ceasefire, release of all hostages, guaranteed unhindered humanitarian access & ultimately a durable peace in the Middle East.”

    The German foreign minister, Annalena Baerbock, said the Israeli offer “provides a glimpse of hope and a possible path out of the war’s deadlock”, and the EU chief, Ursula von der Leyen, welcomed a “balanced and realistic” approach to end the bloodshed.

    Israel sent tanks and troops into Rafah in May, ignoring concerns over the safety of displaced Palestinian civilians sheltering in the city on the Egyptian border.

    “There are a number of occupation [Israeli] snipers in high-rise buildings overseeing all areas of Tal al-Sultan … making the situation very dangerous.”

    The Israeli seizure of the Rafah crossing has further slowed sporadic deliveries of aid for Gaza’s 2.4 million people and in effect shuttered the territory’s main exit point.
