Live coverage of the war between Israel and Hamas today, Thursday, August 22

While Israel has killed a leader of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the armed wing of Palestinian Fatah, in Lebanon, negotiations for a ceasefire continue. However, the more the hours pass, the more unlikely a truce in the Gaza Strip appears. In the meantime, Hamas has invited all Muslims living in the West Bank, Jerusalem and the rest of Israel to go to the Al-Aqsa Mosque on Friday for a large mass protest. Iran, meanwhile, has returned to threatening Israel that it could soon attack “by heaven and by earth”.
