The current situation regarding the Israel-Hamas conflict is that negotiations are ongoing, but progress is slow. The US, Egypt, and Qatar have called on Israel and Hamas to resume urgent negotiations, with US President Joe Biden stating that the deal is "still viable."

White House
1. We know Hamas has been using schools as locations to gather and operate out of, but we have also said repeatedly and consistently that Israel must take measures to minimise civilian harm.
Israel Defense Forces
1. Increasingly in recent months Hamas has focused on exploiting school buildings, often where civilians are sheltering inside, to use them as military facilities, command and control centers, for storing weapons, and to execute terrorist attacks.
France Foreign Ministry
1. For several weeks, school buildings have been repeatedly targeted, with an intolerable number of civilian victims.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Israeli Government
1. Pursuant to the proposal by the US and the mediators, Israel will — on August 15 — send the negotiations team to a place to be determined in order to finalise the details of the implementation of the framework agreement.
Kamala Harris
Democratic Party
1. Yet again, far too many civilians have been killed. I mean, Israel has a right to go after the terrorists that are Hamas. But as I have said many, many times, they also have, I believe, an important responsibility to avoid civilian casualties.
Philippe Lazzarini
UN Relief and Works Agency
1. Some are only able to carry their children with them, some carry their whole lives in one small bag. They are going to overcrowded places where shelters are already overflowing with families. They have lost everything and need everything.
2. For your own safety, you must evacuate immediately to the newly created humanitarian zone. The area you are in is considered a dangerous combat zone.
3. Another day of horror in Gaza, another school hit with reports of dozens of Palestinians killed among them women, children and older people.
Save the Children
1. All parties must respect the protected status of schools and not use schools as battlegrounds.
