Israeli warplanes have conducted fresh aerial assaults on residential buildings in Gaza City, killing at least 45 Palestinians.
Citing eyewitnesses, the Palestinian WAFA news agency reported on Monday that 25 civilians were killed and a number of others injured in an Israeli airstrike on the Hamada family’s home in the al-Tuffah neighborhood, east of Gaza City.
Another report said that Israeli jets had targeted a house in Gaza City’s Sabra district, killing at least 20 people, mostly children and women, and wounding several others.
Meanwhile, Israeli warplanes launched air raids on the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.

The occupation artillery also targeted the vicinity of a residential building in Khan Yunis, in southern Gaza.
Israel waged the genocidal war on besieged Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian Hamas resistance movement carried out a historic operation against the occupying entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
However, more than 116 days into the aggression, the Tel Aviv regime has failed to achieve its objectives in the Gaza Strip despite killing at least 26,637 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 65,387 others.
In an emergency interim ruling on Friday, the UN’s top court ordered Israel to prevent genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.
The Hague-based International Court of Justice (ICJ) said Israel must “take all measures in its power” to limit the death and destruction caused by its offensive, prevent and punish incitement to genocide, and ensure access to humanitarian aid.
