An Israeli air strike in the southern city of Rafah killed 28 Palestinians in a single house this morning. The five-storey home belonging to the Zourb family was destroyed just hours before a nearby residence was razed to the ground by another strike. Many of the victims had fled to the south from Gaza city after being warned by the Israeli military to leave the north of the enclave, ahead of Israeli ground invasion there.
