Israeli airstrikes killed dozens of Palestinians mostly in northern Gaza on Sunday (October 27).

That’s according to medics and the Palestinian official news agency, and comes as efforts by mediators to secure a ceasefire resumed in Qatar.

Health officials say at least nine people were killed and at least 20 others wounded.

Three local journalists were among those who had been killed, according to Hamas media.

The Israeli military say they are looking into reports of the strike.

Egyptian leader Abdel Fattah al-Sisi proposed on Sunday an initial two-day ceasefire in Gaza to exchange four Israeli hostages for some Palestinian prisoners.

He made the announcement as efforts to defuse the more than year-long war resumed in Qatar with the directors of the CIA and Israel's Mossad intelligence agency taking part.

There was no immediate comment from Israel or Hamas.

A Palestinian official close to the mediation effort told Reuters that Hamas would listen to the new offers but remains determined that any agreement should end the war and get Israeli forces out of Gaza.

Israel has said the war cannot end until Hamas has been wiped out as a military force and governing entity in the enclave.

The U.S., Qatar and Egypt have been spearheading negotiations to end the war that erupted after Hamas fighters stormed into southern Israel on Oct. 7 last year, killing 1,200 people and taking more than 250 hostages, by Israeli tallies.

The death toll from Israel's retaliatory air and ground onslaught in Gaza is approaching 43,000, Gaza health officials say.
