GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – Ten people, including four children, were killed in fresh Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, a medical source said.

Witnesses said a drone shelled a group of civilians in Block C in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.

Five people lost their lives in the attack, including four children, the medical source said.

Israeli fighter jets also hit a home in the northern town of Beit Lahia, leaving five people dead, the source added.

Israel has launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip following a Hamas attack last October, killing more than 44,500 people, most of them women and children, and injuring nearly 106,000.

The second year of the genocide in Gaza has drawn growing international condemnation, with officials and institutions labeling the attacks and blocking of aid deliveries as a deliberate attempt to destroy a population.

On Nov. 21, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its deadly war on Gaza.
