Preliminary death toll from Israel’s Beit Lahiya strike at 72
Funeral at Al-Aqsa Hospital for 17 Palestinians killed in central Gaza
Gaza’s Government Media Office says the strike, which we reported earlier, hit a residential tower in the north of Gaza housing six Palestinian families. Dozens more are wounded.
We will continue to update you as information comes in.
Here, inside the Al-Aqsa Hospital, there was a mourning for the 17 Palestinians that we reported on earlier, who were killed across different areas in the central Gaza Strip. Among them are at least four children.
We saw mothers crying, bidding farewells to their loved ones.
We also hear continuous shelling, explosions and Israeli planes above the central area.
And to make matters worse, the health situation and humanitarian situation are not getting any better. People are struggling to find food and get access to medicine and clean drinking water.
