TOPSHOT – A wounded Palestinian boy, 12-year-old Mohammed Sofi, looks at buildings destroyed during Israeli airstrikes near his home in the Rafah refugee camp in the southern of Gaza Strip, on October 16, 2023. Israel declared war on the Islamist group Hamas on October 8, a day after waves of its fighters broke through the heavily fortified border and killed more than 1,400 people, most of them civilians. The relentless Israeli bombings since have flattened neighbourhoods and left at least 2,670 people dead in the Gaza Strip, the majority ordinary Palestinians.

More than 800 children were among the 1,500 Palestinians trapped under rubble in Gaza, the health ministry said on Monday afternoon. Civil defence teams have resorted to digging through debris with their bare hands in a bid to find survivors of almost-constant Israeli strikes across the Gaza Strip.
