10 Palestinians killed in Israeli airstrike on southern Gaza

GAZA, Palestine

At least 10 Palestinians were killed Thursday in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a house in the Al-Qarara area of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.

Several others were injured in the attack, Palestine TV reported.

"Israeli warplanes also targeted a residential apartment west of Rafah in southern Gaza, while intense airstrikes were reported in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City," said the official WAFA news agency.

This came after Israeli army spokesman Avichai Adraee renewed his warning to the people of Gaza, calling on them to move south for their safety.

The government media office in Gaza has repeatedly reported attacks on roads that Israel declared “safe” towards the south of the Gaza Strip.

Israel has launched relentless air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip since a cross-border attack by the Palestinian resistance group Hamas on Oct. 7.

At least 11,500 Palestinians have since been killed, including more than 7,800 women and children, and more than 29,200 injured, according to the latest figures from Palestinian authorities.

Thousands of buildings, including hospitals, mosques and churches, have also been damaged or destroyed.

The Israeli death toll, meanwhile, is around 1,200, according to official figures.
