Latest Israeli air strikes have killed at least 22 people, including at least 10 in Gaza City, AFP reports citing Gaza’s civil defence agency.

Civil defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP that 10 Palestinians were killed in three separate air strikes in various parts of Gaza City, in the territory’s north, with 12 more people killed in attacks on the southern area of Khan Younis.

Contacted by AFP, the Israeli military said it was looking into the reports. A military statement said that Israeli troops had destroyed “buildings and terrorist infrastructure” used by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad militants in Gaza City’s Shujaiya and Zeitun areas.

The Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of Islamic Jihad, which has fought alongside Hamas in Gaza, released footage that it said showed its fighters firing missiles at an Israeli army command and control centre near Shujaiya.
