An airstrike on a house in Jabalia, northern Gaza, killed at least 14 people, including 6 children, and 20 others are missing. In Khan Younis, southern Gaza, the Israeli army was accused of destroying a wall behind the European Hospital.
In Rafah, Israeli soldiers reportedly opened fire near a Gaza Humanitarian Fund aid distribution site, killing at least 31 people. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has called for an independent investigation and said those responsible must be held accountable.
Some witnesses said Israeli drones and tanks opened fire on the crowd. Meanwhile, an IDF spokesman denied that any civilian casualties were caused. The Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF), which operates the relief center, also denied reports of casualties, accusing Hamas of spreading false information.
