Five killed in Gaza strikes as death toll reaches 323
Three people from a single family are killed in an Israeli air strike on the northern Gaza Strip, medics say.
The three members of the Zuweidi family were killed in Beit Hanoun, where a fourth person is also killed in a separate air strike, emergency services spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra says.
A 25-year-old woman is also killed in an Israeli air strike in central Gaza’s Deir al-Balah, raising the death toll in 12 days of violence in Gaza to 323, he adds.
