At least 19 people, including minors, have been killed in an Israeli airstrike on a residential building in Jabalia, northern Gaza, according to local media reports on Monday.
The Palestinian news agency WAFA said several others were injured when Israeli fighter jets targeted the house. The Israeli military said it was investigating the incident.
Meanwhile, in a statement on Telegram, the Israeli military confirmed that “operational activity against terrorist organisations” continues throughout the Gaza Strip. It added that over the past 48 hours, more than 200 targets have been hit in the ongoing campaign.
This included “terrorists, weapon storage facilities, sniper and anti-tank missile posts, tunnel shafts, and additional terrorist infrastructure sites.’’
More than 50 people have reportedly been killed in the Gaza Strip amid the Israeli attacks since last night.
The Israeli military reported renewed shelling from the Gaza Strip, with two projectiles said to have been fired from southern Gaza coming down in the Palestinian territory.
At the same time, another was intercepted before reaching Israeli territory.
There were no initial reports of injuries or damage.
Since the start of the Gaza war, members of Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist organisations in the Gaza Strip have fired thousands of rockets at Israel.
