• Foreign Minister Penny Wong has urged all Australians who wish to leave Israel to do so immediately as the Albanese government prepares four evacuation flights out of the country starting from Friday.
• Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said about 1600 Australians had registered for the airlift and the government was working to secure passage for 19 citizens in Gaza.
• Six days of Israeli air strikes have left more than 300,000 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip homeless.
• Health officials in Gaza said the Israeli bombardment had killed more than 1500 people and injured over 6600 others.
• Israeli troops are preparing for a possible ground invasion of Gaza after Hamas’ deadly weekend assault.
• The Israeli government said Hamas had killed more than 1200 people, wounded about 3000 and was holding 150 hostages.
• The US and Qatar agreed to deny Iran access to $9.5 billion transferred to the nation as part of a deal between Washington and Tehran that led to the release of imprisoned Americans from Iran last month.
