At least 17 deaths overnight in the Nuseirat refugee camp following a night of heavy Israeli bombardment in central Gaza, Al Jazeera reports, citing local media.

Earlier, it was reported that at least seven people had been confirmed killed in a strike on a home in Nuseirat, while five people had been confirmed killed in a separate strike.

At least 274 displaced Palestinians were killed in the Nuseirat refugee camp earlier this month after the Israeli military conducted a deadly rescue operation to free four Israeli captives held there.
