    STORYLINE:
    Hundreds of Palestinians took to the streets of Hebron in the West Bank to protest against the Israeli military operation in the Gaza Strip.
    They carried banners expressing support for those in the war-affected Palestinian territory and called on Muslim nations to take immediate action to end the conflict.
    More than 300,000 Palestinians fled Rafah over the weekend as Israeli forces pushed deeper into the southern city, according to United Nations estimates.
    Israel also pounded Gaza's devastated north, where some Hamas militants have regrouped in areas the military said it had cleared months ago.
    The death toll from the war in Gaza has soared to more than 35,000 people, most of them women and children, according to local health officials.
    The war began Oct. 7 when Hamas attacked southern Israel, killing around 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducting about 250 others.
    Israel says militants still hold around 100 hostages and the remains of more than 30 others.
