CAIRO (AP) — Dozens of international charities and humanitarian groups called Tuesday for disbanding a controversial Israeli- and U.S.-backed system to distribute aid in Gaza because of recurring chaos and violence against Palestinians seeking food at its sites.

CAIRO (AP) — Israeli forces killed at least 22 people and wounded 20 others, many while attempting to get desperately needed food aid in southern Gaza on Monday, according to witnesses, hospitals, and Gaza’s Health Ministry.

The call from some of the world's top aid organisations and charities comes after reports of soldiers killing hundreds of of Palestinians at aid sites.

President Trump said on Tuesday evening that Israel has agreed to the “necessary conditions” to “finalize” a 60-day ceasefire in the war-torn Gaza Strip and pushed the Palestinian militant group

An Israeli official said plans were being made for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to travel to Washington in the coming weeks, a sign there may be movement on a new deal.

Some Palestinians in Gaza, hardened by months of shattered promises and ongoing suffering, were skeptical on Sunday about the possibility of a ceasefire deal.
