ISTANBUL (AA) - At least 21 Palestinians were killed and several others injured since dawn Saturday in relentless Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip, medical sources told the Palestine news agency Wafa.

Nine people were killed and others injured when Israeli warplanes bombed a house in the Kalboush area of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.

Three bodies were brought to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital and several others were wounded following an Israeli airstrike on a house in the town of al-Zawaida in central Gaza.

Four more Palestinians were killed and several others injured in an Israeli strike on a home in the Shati refugee camp in western Gaza City.

Five bodies were recovered after an Israeli strike on a house on al-Hajar Street in eastern Gaza City, while 13 others remained trapped under the rubble.

The Israeli army has killed nearly 65,600 Palestinians, most of them women and children, in Gaza since October 2023. Months of air and ground assaults have left Gaza largely uninhabitable, pushing its population into famine.
