At least 25 people killed across Palestinian enclave since dawn as Hamas says new conditions by Israel delay ceasefire.

Israel and Hamas on Wednesday accused each other of obstructing negotiations for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, after Israel withdrew its negotiators from the talks the previous day. Israeli media reported on Wednesday that the refusal by the Palestinian Islamist militia Hamas to hand over a list of the names of the hostages it still holds is hindering progress in the negotiations.

Palestinian militant group Hamas and Israel have traded blame over failure to conclude a ceasefire agreement despite progress reported by both sides in past days. It comes as medics said Israeli military strikes killed at least 24 people across Gaza.
