At least 15 people were killed by an Israeli airstrike targeting a house in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, officials in the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry say.

Medics say rescue operations are still underway as some victims are believed to be trapped under the rubble of the three-floor building.

The casualties figures can not be confirmed and there are no immediate details on the target of the strike.

There is no immediate comment from the IDF.
