Airstrike on houses in central Gaza kills ten Palestinians, medics say
CAIRO (Reuters) – Israeli airstrikes on two homes in the Nuseirat refugee camp and the city of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip killed at least 10 Palestinians, medics told Reuters on Saturday. Including two children.
Meanwhile, the Gaza Health Ministry said Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza continued to be under heavy bombardment, adding that the explosion occurred in an “unprecedented manner” and without prior warning.
The hospital is one of only three barely functioning medical facilities on the northern edge of the enclave, where Israeli forces have been operating since October.
