Israel’s overnight attacks across Gaza have killed 19 Palestinians in Gaza City, Al Jazeera reports, citing medical sources.

These included eight killed after Israeli forces bombed a school-turned-shelter, Al-Farabi School, which was housing displaced people west of Gaza City.

At least nine others were killed, including four children, after Israeli forces attacked a tent and a house in the Sheikh Radwan neighbourhood of Gaza City.

Two children were also killed when Israeli forces targeted a tent housing displaced people in the Remal neighbourhood of Gaza City.
