ANKARA (AA) – At least 47 Palestinians were killed on Sunday in Israeli airstrikes targeting houses in the town of Jabalia and the Deir Al-Balah refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, Palestinian media reported.
“35 Palestinians were killed and dozens were injured on Sunday during an Israeli bombing of a house in the town of Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip,” Palestine’s official news agency Wafa reported.
At least 90 others were wounded and many others are still under the rubble, local sources said.
“The Israeli warplanes also targeted a house in Deir al-Balah refugee camp in the middle of the Gaza Strip, killing about 12 citizens and wounding dozens, the majority of whom were already displaced,” the agency also reported.
