We’re covering a call for a cease-fire in Israel and Gaza and evacuation orders for children in Ukraine. Plus: A new act for a Paris theater.

Security Council. He said that the attacks by Hamas that had left 1,400 people dead in Israel on Oct. 7 were “appalling” but that they did not justify the “collective punishment” of civilians in the Gaza Strip, where the Israeli military significantly stepped up its bombardment. Israel said it had struck more than 700 targets in Gaza in the past two days. The Gaza Health Ministry, which is controlled by Hamas, said it had recorded the highest single-day death toll of the war yesterday: at least 704 people killed in dozens of strikes on homes, a refugee camp and other places. It was not possible to independently verify the toll. Civilian casualties in Gaza — where a slow trickle of aid trucks have done little to stem a spiraling humanitarian crisis — were highlighted by [President Emmanuel Macron of France](~/AAAAAQA~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~) during a visit to Israel. He met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and said his country stood with the Israelis, but added that the fight against terrorism must be “without mercy but not without rules.” John Kirby, a White House spokesman, said the Biden administration did not support a cease-fire because it would only benefit Hamas and acknowledged that civilian casualties were all but inevitable as Israel tries to push Hamas out of Gaza. “It is ugly and it’s going to be messy, and innocent civilians are going to be hurt going forward,” he said. Analysis: Israel said it wants to destroy Hamas.

It’s not the first time that the government has ordered the evacuation of children, but the push underscored the ferocity of the fighting at the moment. Ukrainian evacuation orders have often coincided with the most violent periods, and while most of the towns and villages along the front are now largely abandoned, thousands of families have refused to leave.

The move prolonged a remarkable three-week-long deadlock that has left Congress leaderless and paralyzed. Representative Mike Johnson, Republican of Louisiana, emerged last night as the latest contender for the post after Representative Tom Emmer of Minnesota dropped his bid. Emmer’s downfall followed a swift backlash from the right, including former President Donald Trump, that left his candidacy in shambles. It was not clear whether Johnson could do any better, as dozens of House Republicans indicated they were not inclined to back him — or any candidate running.
