What you need to know
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement that the military is "prepared" for an operation in Rafah, along with the "evacuation of the population."
Since February, Israel has hinted at a ground operation in the southern Gazan city, where it says the remaining Hamas fighting units are holding out. However, more than 1.5 million people are sheltering in city, and Israel's allies including the US have warned against carrying out an assault without civilian protections in place.
Meanwhile, Hamas, the Islamist militant group ruling Gaza, has presented a cease-fire proposal that reportedly includes the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.
In response, the Israeli prime minister office called the proposal "unrealistic."
Separately, a ship carrying 200 tons of humanitarian aid has reached the coast of the Gaza Strip, and has begun unloading, according to media reports.
