The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says the death toll from an apparent Israeli strike on a tent in an area housing displaced people has risen to 25, with another 50 wounded.
The location of the incident provided by Hamas officials was just outside an Israeli-designated safe zone to the west of Rafah. The Israeli military said they were looking into the strikes at the reported coordinates.
The Hamas figures can not be verified and don’t differentiate between civilians and terror operatives.
