Israeli forces are continuing attacks across the Gaza Strip after a night of bombings that killed and wounded dozens of Palestinians, Al Jazeera reports.

In the past few hours alone, Al Jazeera Arabic’s reporters on the ground have reported more Israeli raids on the centre of Rafah city in the south, and in the Sheikh Zayed and Zeitoun neighbourhoods in the north, as well as in the vicinity of the Kamal Adwan hospital in the north.

Al Jazeera Arabic reporters also said there were fierce clashes between Israeli forces and Palestinian fighters in the Jabalia refugee camp in the north.

The violence comes hours after Israeli attacks on the Nuseirat refugee camp and Gaza City that killed at least 29 people.
