GAZA: The health ministry in Gaza said today that at least 110 Palestinians had been killed since the previous day in Israeli strikes on a northern part of the territory.
In a brief statement, the ministry said “there were 50 martyrs in occupation strikes on houses in Jabalia”, bringing the number of deaths to 110 in the area since yesterday.
AFP could not independently verify the toll.
“When planning a target, the IDF (Israeli army) devotes significant time and resources to preparing the attack and where feasible, uses various tools, including advance warnings, roof knocking, street knocking, target clearing operations and a variety of professional calculations,” the army told AFP when asked about the strikes in Jabalia.
On Friday, the health ministry in Gaza said at least 18,800 people had been killed since Israel launched its retaliatory offensive in Gaza following Hamas’ shock attacks on Oct 7.
