Israel 'tightens siege' of Gaza City as Hamas reviews Trump peace plan

 
Israel's defence minister has said its forces are "tightening the siege" around Gaza City by extending a military corridor across the territory towards the coast.
 
Israel Katz also issued a final warning to the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in the city to evacuate southwards, saying those who remained during the offensive against Hamas would be "terrorists and supporters of terror".
 
Hospitals reported that 45 people had been killed by Israeli fire in Gaza City on Wednesday, while the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said it had been forced to suspend operations there.
 
Israel is stepping up the assault as Hamas weighs its response to a new US plan to end the war.
