Amid ongoing Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip, U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday to discuss the implementation of Phase 2 of President Trump's 20-Point Plan for Gaza and broader regional issues. Despite a ceasefire agreement brokered in October, Israel continues near-daily violations, with reports of gunfire and shelling in Gaza. On Sunday, medical sources in Gaza City reported at least one death and 15 injuries from Israeli attacks. A drone attack was also reported on a medical facility near Jabalia refugee camp, with Israeli military vehicles unleashing heavy fire in the area. Since October 11, at least 484 Palestinians have been killed and 1,321 wounded in Israeli attacks.
