Approximately 48 people were killed overnight yesterday in heavy Israeli bombing of Gaza City, the Hamas-run territory's health authority said, where pockets of fierce fighting are ongoing despite claims by the Israel Defense Forces that the north of the blockaded exclave is largely under Israeli operational control. Another strike killed 20 people sheltering at Al-Aqsa University in the west of Gaza city, witnesses said.
In the southern half of Gaza, areas previously identified as "evacuation zones" for the strip's population of 2.3m, around 85% of whom have fled their homes, have been heavily attacked with airstrikes and artillery over the past week as Israel broadens its ground operation into the centre of the strip.
Israel is now targeting Nuseirat, Maghazi and Bureij, a belt of overcrowded and poorly serviced camps in the centre of the strip built to house Palestinian refugees who fled their homes during the 1948 war over Israel's creation. About 35 people were killed by bombardment of the area yesterday.
