The Israeli military has intercepted a Gaza-bound aid ship, detaining 21 international activists and journalists and seizing all cargo, including baby formula, food, and medicine, according to the Freedom Flotilla Coalition.

The IDF also announces a "tactical pause" in fighting in parts of Gaza, after mounting pressure and warnings of starvation.

The announcement of a 10-hour daily suspension follows growing pressure on Israel as a deadly hunger crisis spreads across the enclave.
