There was constant overnight bombardment focusing on areas near al-Mawasi evacuation zone, an area the Israeli military has instructed people to shelter, Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports from Rafah, southern Gaza.

A home near that area was destroyed. The two families sheltering there were all killed, that’s a total of 14 people. The youngest victim was five years old. The vast majority were under 10 years of age.

Once again, this is the pattern we are seeing: more children are killed, more women are killed and more Palestinians are displaced.

Since the strike hit near the Al-Mawasi evacuation zone, all the rubble and debris fell on people inside their tents, injuring dozens. This all happened without a warning.

There are also reports that more people have been killed in other parts of Khan Younis and central Gaza, with the southern part of Deir el-Balah coming under heavy fire.
