Rafah fears for safety: Israel intensifies attacks on southern Gaza
At least 42 people have been killed in Israeli attacks on Rafah in southern Gaza since dawn. Calls are growing against a large-scale Israeli military offensive there.
The UN, the US and aid agencies say an attack on Gaza's southernmost city would be a catastrophe.
More than a million displaced people are sheltering in Rafah, in what are being described as 'dire' conditions.
