Gaza’s civil defence agency has said that Israeli air strikes killed at least 14 Palestinians overnight, including women and children, while the Israeli military said it had eliminated dozens of fighters in the territory’s north.

An air strike hit tents housing displaced Palestinians in the southern area of Khan Younis, killing at least nine people, including children and women, civil defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP.

A second air strike killed five people, including children, and injured about 22 when “Israeli warplanes hit Fahad Al-Sabah school”, which had been turned into a shelter for “thousands of displaced people” in the Al-Tuffah district of Gaza City, Bassal said.
