At least 52 people were killed in heavy air strikes on densely crowded Rafah in southern Gaza before dawn, according to the Hamas-run territory’s health ministry.
The strikes hit 14 houses and three mosques in different parts of Rafah, according to the Hamas government.
The Israeli military said in a statement it conducted a series of strikes on terror targets in the area.
Hamas does not differentiate between combatant and civilian fatalities.
