By Staff Reporter
Israeli forces continue bombarding Gaza, striking a school-turned-shelter in Gaza City and sparking a fire that killed at least 10 people. Victims include a child who burned to death.
The relentless attacks after a day of Israeli bombings that killed at least 32 Palestinians, damaged the El Dorra Pediatric Hospital in Gaza City and destroyed bulldozers used in rescue operations across the Strip.
Qatar’s Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani says Doha is still working with mediators to reach an end to the war in Gaza.
At least 51,266 Palestinians have been confirmed killed and 116,991 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza since it began 18 months ago.
The Gaza Government Media Office updated its death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of people missing under the rubble are presumed dead. At least 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led October 7, 2023, attacks, and more than 200 were taken captive.
