GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – At least ten Palestinians, including a woman and three children, were killed on Tuesday and others injured in Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip, medics said.

In a statement, the Civil Defense said its rescue teams removed the bodies of seven people killed in an Israeli airstrike on a home in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central part of the enclave.

A medical source at the Al-Awda Hospital said the victims included a woman and three children.

The Israeli airstrike completely destroyed the home and severely damaged the surrounding buildings, eyewitnesses told Anadolu.

Three more people were killed in a drone strike targeting a civilian gathering north of Rafah in southern Gaza, the Civil Defense said.

The service said its teams recovered the victims’ bodies from Ariba area north of Rafah and were transported to Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, also in southern Gaza.

Israel has launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip that has killed nearly 44,800 people, mostly women and children, since a Hamas attack on Oct. 7 last year.

Last month, the International Criminal Court 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 war on Gaza.
