Israel said its positions on the ceasefire talks remain unchanged, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowing to continue the war until all hostages are returned and Hamas is disarmed.
Concerns about a worsening humanitarian catastrophe persist, with Amnesty International accusing Israel of a deliberate starvation campaign.
