Negotiations are underway for a humanitarian corridor in Gaza, ahead of Israel's ground offensive.

The death toll on both Palestinian and Israeli sides is nearing 2500, with 338,000 in Gaza displaced.

The UN is working with the US, Egypt and Israel on establishing a humanitarian corridor on Gaza's border with Egypt.

Newshub Europe Correspondent Lisette Reymer says all sides are being forced to make compromises.

"At the moment, it seems like perhaps Israel is leaning towards letting the food come in- but nobody is able to leave or have any American citizens be able to leave."
