Live updates: Middle East crisis

Lebanese caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati says Lebanon has agreed to extend the ceasefire agreement with Israel until February 18, reported Al Jazeera.

The move came after a day of violence in which Israeli forces shot at Lebanese people trying to return to their homes in southern Lebanon, killing at least 22 and wounding dozens more.

Palestinian leader Mahmud Abbas and his Hamas rivals on Sunday rejected proposals to displace people from Gaza after US President Donald Trump's idea to "clean out" the war-torn territory.

Bassem Naim, a member of Hamas's political bureau, told AFP that Palestinians would "foil such projects", as they have done to similar plans "for displacement and alternative homelands over the decades".

Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas condemned on Sunday "any projects" to relocate the people of Gaza outside the territory, after US President Donald Trump suggested moving them to Egypt and Jordan.

Without naming the US leader, Abbas "expressed strong rejection and condemnation of any projects aimed at displacing our people from the Gaza Strip", a statement from his office said, adding that the Palestinian people "will not abandon their land and holy sites".

Arbel Yehud will be released before the next scheduled hostage exchange, a Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) official has told Al Jazeera. 

The PIJ official said that mediators have reached an agreement concerning Yehud's release. 

She will be released in exchange of 30 Palestinians before next Saturday. 

The health ministry in Gaza said on Sunday the death toll had reached 47,306, with numbers rising in spite of a ceasefire as new bodies are found under the rubble.

The ministry said hospitals in the Gaza Strip had received 23 bodies in the past 72 hours — 14 "recovered from under the rubble", five who "succumbed to their injuries" from earlier in the war, and four new fatalities.

The ministry said the war had also left 111,483 people wounded.

The ministry again reiterated its appeal for Gazans to submit information about dead or missing people to help update its records.

The death toll from Israeli soldiers' rampage in south Lebanon rose to 15 after the forces didn't withdraw from the territory following a deadline and thousands of people tried to return to their homes to defy the occupation's orders, Al Jazeera reports. 

The Palestine Red Crescent Society says it has so far evacuated one dead and four wounded victims near the Wadi Gaza Bridge after Israeli snipers attacked the gathered, according to Al Jazeera.
