TEL AVIV, Israel -- Israel faced sharp criticism as it stopped the entry of all food and other supplies into Gaza on Sunday and warned of “additional consequences” for Hamas if a fragile ceasefire isn't extended. Mediators Egypt and Qatar accused Israel of violating humanitarian law by using starvation as a weapon.

Israel’s energy minister said he will cut power to the Gaza Strip immediately. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff is expected to attend talks with Israel and Hamas.
