Gaza’s civil defence agency on Sunday said 30 people, including 13 children, were killed in Israeli strikes on two houses in the north of the Palestinian territory.
The first strike early Sunday hit a house in Jabalia, northern Gaza, killing “at least 25” people, including 13 children, and injuring more than 30, the civil defence said.
Another strike on the Sabra neighbourhood of Gaza City killed five people, with others still missing in the aftermath.
“A number of civilians are still under the rubble,” the civil denfece added.
Since 6 October, the Israeli military has been engaged in an intensified air and ground assault on areas of northern Gaza, including Jabalia, where hundreds have been killed since.
At least 20 people were killed including three children in the village of Almat, north of the capital Beirut. The targeted victims were reportedly members of the Arsifeh family, displaced and from Baalbek, L’Orient Today said.
The attack follows a wave of Israeli strikes on east and south Lebanon on Saturday killed at least 33 people, the health ministry said, as Israel intensified its air campaign in the country.
At least 20 were killed in the Baalbek-Hermel region, including 11 in the Knaissseh locality, a statement from the ministry said. Another 14 people were wounded, it added.
The ministry said five people were killed in the southern village of Hanouiyeh.
Separately, it reported that seven rescuers with the Risala Scouts association and the Islamic Health Committee were killed in a strike on the village of Deir Qanun.
