Hamas says dozens killed in strikes on Jabaliya in northern Gaza; no independent confirmation
Gaza’s Hamas-run Interior Ministry said a number of Israeli airstrikes hit apartment buildings in a residential area of Jabaliya refugee camp in northern Gaza.
The ministry says some 400 people are either dead or injured, but does not provide a breakdown.
Ministry spokesperson Ayed al-Bazm said at a news conference that six bombs hit the residential area today.
The figures from Hamas cannot be confirmed.
Pictures from the scene show several large craters and what appear to be several bodies at the scene.
