Tens of thousands of Palestinians are fleeing eastern Gaza City following Israeli warnings of a major offensive to destroy Hamas capabilities. Israel's warnings came after days of airstrikes and shelling that have killed hundreds of Palestinians, including children. Witnesses describe chaotic scenes as families evacuate. The Israeli military says it's targeting Hamas' military capabilities, while indirect negotiations between Israel and Hamas continue, with no breakthrough in sight. US President Trump has called for a swift end to the conflict.
