Israeli air strikes and tank fire have resulted in the deaths of 19 people, including six children, in the Gaza Strip, according to local officials. The strikes occurred across multiple locations, including Gaza City and Khan Yunis, and were described by witnesses as devastating to civilian populations. The ongoing conflict, exacerbated by Hamas’s attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, has led to over 44,000 fatalities in Gaza, predominantly civilians. Local agencies continue to report on the human toll amidst the war.
