Israeli attack kills more Palestinian women in Gaza

In war-battered Gaza, nine people – almost all women – have been killed when a house was hit by Israeli fire in Deir el-Balah. Three people died in an air raid on a tent for forcibly displaced Palestinians in the city, according to Al-Aqsa Hospital. In Gaza City to the north, health officials at al-Shifa Hospital said they received one body and several injured people, adding staff members are having difficulty getting to the main health centre because of Israel’s ground invasion and heavy bombardment.
