Israeli tanks have now entered Rafah, taking control of the border.
Yesterday saw Hamas agree to a ceasefire proposal, but Israel believes the terms do not go far enough and as such, are continuing their mission.
Despite this, a delegation is being sent to negotiate, trying to reach an agreement.
Former Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem Fleur Hassan-Nahoum told Mike Hosking the ceasefire discussion has been quite confusing.
She said that they’d previously presented five ceasefire deals, all of which were rejected by Hamas.
As soon as they sent out warning leaflets to the residents of Rafah, Hassan-Nahoum said, suddenly they come back with an approved deal on an offer that was never made.
