Israeli air strikes since dawn have killed at least 25 people across the Gaza Strip, including women and children, AFP quotes the enclave’s civil defence agency as saying.

“Since dawn today, the occupation’s air strikes have killed 20 people and injured dozens more, including children and women across the Gaza Strip,” Mahmud Bassal, spokesman for the civil defence agency told AFP.

In a separate statement later, the agency reported that five people were killed in an Israeli drone strike on a group of civilians in eastern Rafah.
