At least 48 Palestinians killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza
Attacks target aid-seekers, homes and tents sheltering displaced civilians in Gaza

GAZA CITY, Palestine / ISTANBUL
At least 48 Palestinians were killed, including children, as the Israeli army intensified its airstrikes across the war-torn Gaza Strip on Wednesday, medics said.
In Gaza City, Israeli forces killed 14 people, including five children, and injured over 30 in strikes that leveled two homes in the Al-Shati refugee camp, said a medical source.
Four Palestinians were killed and others injured in an Israeli airstrike targeting a gathering of civilians north of Gaza City.
Another Palestinian was killed and five were wounded in an Israeli attack targeting a group of civilians in the city’s Tel al-Hawa neighborhood.
In central Gaza, four people were killed, including a father and his son, and several others were wounded when Israeli strikes hit three homes in the Bureij and Nuseirat refugee camps and in Deir al-Balah.
In Khan Younis in southern Gaza, 10 Palestinians, including children, were killed in a strike that targeted tents sheltering displaced families near Al-Atar junction west of the city.
Israeli army fire also killed six people and injured more than 50 others as a crowd waited for food delivery at a US-Israeli distribution point in Rafah, a medical source said.
Three more people were killed in several strikes on the Al-Tuffah neighborhood of Gaza City, Nuseirat in central Gaza and the al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis.
Two others were killed and several wounded in a separate strike on a displacement tent in the Al-Namsawi area, also west of Khan Younis.
Israeli strikes targeted a civilian vehicle in the same area, killing four Palestinians, two of them children.
The Israeli army has killed nearly 57,700 Palestinians, most of them women and children, in Gaza since October 2023. The relentless bombardment has destroyed the enclave and led to food shortages and the spread of disease.
Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
