As it happened: Albanese not planning Israel trip; 1 million Gazans living without basic needs; Biden links US support for Israel and Ukraine in speech

That is where we're going to leave our live rolling coverage of the Israel-Hamas war for today.

Here's what made headlines throughout the day.

Joe Biden gave a live, prime-time address to the United States from the Oval Office – just the second of his presidency – in which he said support for Israel and Ukraine is intertwined. He also expressed support for a two-state solution.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said he had no plans to visit Israel and that Australian security agencies support that position after Opposition Leader Peter Dutton said he should fly to Washington for next week's visit to the US via Tel Aviv.

NSW Police warned protesters at tomorrow's pro-Palestinian rally in Sydney to behave themselves or risk being arrested. Organisers have been working with police to plan the march through the CBD, which will be attended by more than 800 officers with around 6000 demonstrators expected.

And there are yet more warnings of Gazan health services running out of power to continue operating, with Medecins Sans Frontiers warning the approximately 10,000 wounded people in the enclave could die within hours due to the situation. Desperately needed humanitarian aid is yet to be allowed into the area, with the crucial border crossing at Rafah remaining shut.

Our live blog will return on Monday morning, but we'll have all the latest updates on the situation in Gaza at 9news.com.au and nine.com.au.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) struck more than 100 Hamas targets in Gaza overnight, according to a joint statement issued by the IDF and the Israel Securities Authority.

"Overnight, IDF fighter jets struck over a hundred terror targets belonging to the Hamas terrorist organisation, including an underground tunnel, weapon warehouses, and dozens of operational command centres," the statement read.

The attacks "neutralised" a Hamas terror squad and killed a Hamas naval operative, Amjad Majed Muhammad Abu 'Odeh, who is believed to have been involved in the October 7 attack in southern Israel, the IDF said.

Terror assets and weapons located in a mosque in Gaza's Jabaliya neighbourhood were also destroyed.

According to the statement, the mosque was used as "observation posts and staging ground by Hamas terrorists".

Earlier this afternoon we brought you some updates from NSW Police about tomorrow's planned pro-Palestine rally in Sydney.

Officers are expecting up to 17 rallies related to the Hamas-Israel conflict over the next seven days.

For those who missed it, here are the full details.

The current crisis in the Middle East could disrupt global oil supplies and push prices higher, according to the Associated Press.

Experts are warning the Israel-Hamas war is "definitely not good news" for oil markets, which are already stretched from cut-backs in production by Saudi Arabia and Russia.

Markets will remain volatile, and the conflict could push oil prices higher, "which is definitely bad news for inflation," executive director of the International Energy Agency Fatih Birol said.

They don't believe it will be nearly as bad as the 1973 Arab oil embargo, which led to long lines at petrol bowsers in the United States.

The embargo was put on countries who supported Israel during the Yom Kippur War by Arab nations.

A rocket attack near Baghdad International Airport has added to a growing number of attacks targeting US and coalition forces in the Middle East, as the US tries to stave off a wider conflict stemming from the war in Gaza.

Two rockets targeted the Baghdad Diplomatic Support Center near the airport, which houses US military, diplomatic, and civilian personnel, early on Friday morning local time, according to a US defence official.

One rocket was intercepted by a counter-rocket system, while the second hit an empty storage facility and no one was injured, the official said.

The attack happened Friday at approximately 10.50am (AEDT).

The rocket attack is the latest in a series of strikes targeting US and coalition forces in Iraq in recent days, as the Biden administration warns Iran and other adversaries not to try to fan the flames of the war in Gaza to other parts of the Middle East at such a volatile time.

The US has not assigned attribution for the attacks.

Iranian proxies in Iraq and Syria have carried out similar drone and rocket attacks against US forces in the past.

Leading humanitarian watchdog Human Rights Watch has accused Western nations of a double standard in their response to the conflict in Gaza.

Deputy program director Tom Porteous wrote in a blog post on HRW's website that human rights violations by Hamas do not justify violations by Israel.

"The demands of international humanitarian law to protect civilians apply to all," Porteous said.

"The United States and European countries quickly and rightly denounced the brutal Hamas-led attacks against Israel in which Palestinian armed groups killed more than 1400 men, women, and children and took almost 200 hostages.

"They also quickly and rightly called for those responsible to be held to account and for hostages to be released.

"But the reaction from Washington and – with a few exceptions – from European capitals to Israel's actions in Gaza since October 7 has been muted.

"Where is the clear condemnation of the cruel tightening of the 16-year closure of Gaza that amounts to collective punishment, a war crime?

"Where is the outrage at statements by Israeli political leaders that seek to blur the all-important distinction between civilians and combatants in Gaza even as they order ever more intense bombardment of this densely populated territory, reducing city blocks and neighbourhoods to rubble?"

Israel says it is doing everything possible to protect civilians.

But it has faced criticism from aid organisations and other bodies for its siege of Gaza, air strikes, and evacuation order for Palestinians in the northern part of the enclave – which the Red Cross said was "not compatible with international humanitarian law".

The US has launched a visa waiver program to allow Israelis to visit the country for 90 days or less without a visa, according to the Associated Press.

The US previously announced it would add Israel to the waiver program after the conflict began but that it would come into effect on November 30.

It has been fast-tracked to take effect now.

The US waiver program includes Australia and 40 other mostly European and Asian countries whose citizens can travel to the US for three months without visas.

However, commercial airline flights out of Tel Aviv are difficult to secure spots on.
