We're pausing our live coverage for the next few hours, so until then here's where things stand in the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

The US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is heading to Turkey on Sunday, as he continues his diplomatic push.

He's been working with leaders in the region on a so-called humanitarian pause in the fighting, and we heard from President Joe Biden on Saturday who suggested there had been some progress on the issues.

Arab countries have been demanding an immediate ceasefire, but the US is worried that this would allow Hamas to regroup.

Meanwhile, Israeli forces are pushing deeper and deeper into Gaza City. Israel said the main road south from Gaza City would be open for three hours on Saturday to let anyone wanting to leave. But the army accused Hamas of trying to stop people from leaving .

We've had an update from the UN on the humanitarian situation in Gaza. It says there are nearly 1.5 million displaced in the territory, with more than 700,000 sheltering in UN facilities. It warns that these are becoming overcrowded - adding to health risks for the population – and its sites in the south of the territory are now over capacity

There have been problems at the Rafah crossing into Egypt - the only way out of Gaza - with reports saying that foreign nationals were not being allowed to leave the territory. Hamas was reportedly asking for more wounded people to leave before more foreigners could leave.
