Gaza: At least 22 Palestinians have been martyred in Israeli attacks across Gaza since dawn, including journalist Hassan Majdi Abu Warda and several of his family members.
Israel’s attack killed nine of Dr Alaa al-Najjar’s 10 children. The oldest child killed was 12, and the youngest was just a few months old.
Gaza Media’s Office says the attack amounts to a war crime.
Rescuers in Gaza said eight people were killed and dozens more wounded in Israeli air strikes across the Palestinian territory on Sunday.
Civil defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal said five people were killed in a strike on a home in Jabalia, in the north.
He added some people were still under the debris, as “the civil defense does not have search equipment or heavy equipment to lift the rubble to rescue the wounded and recover the martyrs”.
Two more people, including a pregnant woman, were killed in an attack targeting tents sheltering displaced people around Nuseirat in central Gaza, he added. A strike in the main southern city of Khan Yunis also killed one person, Bassal said.
The Israeli military is in effect controlling 77 percent of the Gaza Strip through “continued genocide, ethnic cleansing”, the enclave’s Government Media Office says, calling on the UN and the international community to take action to stop “blatant defiance of all international laws and norms”.
Israel has allowed 100 trucks carrying aid into Gaza since Wednesday, officials say, an amount that is nowhere near what’s needed to help the enclave’s two million people as they face famine.
Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 53,939 Palestinians and wounded 122,797, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
The Government Media Office updated its death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of people missing under the rubble are presumed dead.
