We're expecting to hear from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken shortly, who will talk to reporters at a news conference in Capri, Italy, following the conclusion of a G7 meeting. Blinken says that G7 foreign ministers remained "intensely focused on Gaza," even while they were dealing with the escalation between Iran and Israel.
We'll bring you updates on what he says, and you can also watch live by clicking the play button at the top of the page. Blinken mentions the ceasefire talks and emphasises that it is Hamas who is holding up a deal.
"The only thing standing between the Gazan people and a ceasefire is Hamas," he says, adding that Hamas has rejected generous proposals from Israel.
He also urges rapid implementation of Israel's humanitarian assistance commitments such as more aid, more crossings and better distribution of the assistance.
"We have seen important progress but we need to see sustained results and that there is distribution throughout Gaza," Blinken says.
