Israeli airstrikes on Gaza killed at least 85 Palestinians overnight, the Hamas-run health ministry said. Over 500 have died in two days as Israel resumed attacks following failed ceasefire talks. Hamas fired three rockets at Tel Aviv, with one intercepted. The Israeli military launched a ground operation in northern Gaza, aiming to establish a buffer zone. Gaza's health ministry reports 591 deaths since Tuesday. Meanwhile, thousands protested in Israel demanding hostage releases. UN officials condemned the rising toll, with five Unrwa staff killed. The US reaffirmed support for Israel, as Yemen's Houthis launched a missile toward Ben Gurion Airport.
