At least 37 Palestinians were killed in Gaza on Saturday as Israeli forces launched fresh air and drone attacks across the enclave, Gaza’s civil defence said.
Spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP that 35 people lost their lives in seven separate strikes across various areas, while Israeli fire killed two more civilians waiting for food assistance in the Netzarim corridor, a militarised zone in central Gaza.
Among the dead were nine children, according to Bassal. Three were killed when an Israeli air strike hit a house in Jabalia, in northern Gaza.
He said six other children died in the northeast of Gaza City after strikes targeted a neighbourhood sheltering displaced people, including one area close to a school.
