Israeli air strikes have killed hundreds of Palestinians in the past 48 hours, health authorities in Gaza said on Tuesday, as fatal attacks continued on homes, schools and shelters full of civilians. At least 200 people have been killed and “remain trapped under the rubble” following Israeli air strikes in the past two days, said Dr Hossam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia. Intense bombardment continued overnight and into Tuesday morning, with several air strikes reported on Gaza city and other parts of the north that have been under an intense Israeli siege for more than 60 days.
