Al-Awda Hospital reported that 10 people, including six children, were killed and 16 others injured after an Israeli bombing of a water distribution point in the Nuseirat refugee camp.

Five others died and numerous others were injured in an air raid on the Al-Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza City, where another death was also reported.

The Safa news agency reported that three citizens were killed in an Israeli bombing of a tent housing for displaced persons in the southern area of Al-Mawasi.

Military forces continued their ground offensive against the northern Gaza Strip this morning, especially around the city of Beit Hanoun, which was almost completely destroyed, according to Arab television images.

Last night, the northernmost city in the territory was the target of dozens of simultaneous and unprecedented airstrikes in one of the largest waves of fire rings since the start of the war, the official news agency Wafa reported.
