The Rafah border crossing in Gaza has been closed on the Palestinian side, due to the presence of Israeli tanks, according to the border authority.
Israeli tanks are now blocking the main artery bringing humanitarian aid into the strip - parts of which are already experiencing ’full-blown famine.’
That comes after a night of heavy Israeli bombardment in Rafah, in southern Gaza.
At least 14 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli strikes, in the past few hours.
The attacks follow a unanimous vote by the Israeli war cabinet, to continue its operation in the city - and comes despite Hamas’ announcement that it’s ready to accept a ceasefire deal.
Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum is in Rafah, in southern Gaza and Mohammed Jamjoom is on the phone now from the Jordanian capital, Amman for the latest developments.
