Meanwhile, Israeli bombardment and ground operations are continuing across Gaza, with the Hamas-run health ministry reporting on Thursday that 107 people were killed over the previous 24 hours.
At least 52 people have been killed since dawn on Thursday, according to the Hamas-run Civil Defence agency. Palestinian media reported that they included 16 people, most of them members of one extended family, who died when a home was hit in Jabalia, in northern Gaza.
The Israeli military issued evacuation orders for Jabalia and 13 other northern neighbourhoods on Thursday, warning residents that it was "operating with intense force in your areas, as terrorist organisations continue their activities and operations".
According to the UN, about 81% of the territory is now either subject to Israeli evacuation orders or located in militarized "no-go" zones.
Almost 600,000 people are estimated to have been displaced again since March, including 161,000 who have been forced to flee in the past week.
Israel launched a military campaign in Gaza in response Hamas's cross-border attack on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken hostage.
At least 53,762 people, including 16,500 children, have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory's health ministry.
