Health officials in Gaza said Israeli strikes have killed at least 60 people in the besieged enclave earlier today.
Witnesses told AFP that early morning strikes rocked the south of Gaza.
Nimma al-Akhras, an 80-year-old Palestinian, said that a strike has destroyed her home. “It was very powerful,” she said. “We started to scream, and I couldn’t move, but someone pulled me out and put me on a cart.”
Health ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra reported that “more than 60 martyrs” died in Israeli air strikes and artillery fire overnight, with dozens more wounded.
