British troops may help deliver aid to Gaza
By Nathan Morley
The BBC reports that no American forces would go ashore, however Britain is reportedly mulling sending troops when the aid corridor opens.
Aid would be delivered to Gaza from Larnaca in Cyprus before being transferred into lorries and smaller vessels.
Proposal for ceasefire
In other developments, Hamas is reviewing Israel's response to the movement's proposal for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
The group announced that it was open to any proposals for a permanent end of hostilities in the Gaza Strip, which factors in the needs and rights of the Palestinians.
Qatar, Egypt, and the USA are seeking to reach a deal for a prisoner exchange and a second ceasefire.
Escalation of conflict
Since the conflict erupted, at least 34,300 Palestinians have been killed in the Israeli attacks on Gaza and about 1,200 people have died in Hamas attacks on Israel.
Elsewhere, two Hezbollah combatants and a civilian lost their lives on Saturday in Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon. Unease along the Lebanon-Israel border intensified last October, following a volley of rockets launched by the Lebanese armed group in solidarity with Hamas' attack on Israel.
Israel then hit back by firing heavy artillery towards Lebanon.
