Four children and six adults killed in IDF strike on Gaza

The strike hit a residential housing unit in the Al Tuffah neighbourhood east of Gaza City, according to the official Palestinian news agency Wafa.

It reported that at least four children and three women were among those killed in the bombing, while several more people remain missing under the rubble of the destroyed home.

Gaza’s civil defence agency appeared to confirm the media reports. Spokesperson Mahmud Bassal said. “We have recovered the bodies, including four children and three women, after an Israeli warplane hit a three-storey house.”

He said several families had taken refuge in the house before it was hit.

Two others were killed by Israeli shelling on Gaza City and Jabalia in the north, and three in al-Mawasi in the south, the report said.

Ex-Ofsted chief lashes out at Labour's school reforms

The former head of Ofsted has lashed out at the education secretary, accusing her of caring more about the interests of unions than schoolchildren. In a scathing broadside at Bridget Phillipson’s education reforms, Amanda Spielman accused her of bowing to the “demands of unions”. And Ms Spielman, who stood down as the head of the schools watchdog in 2023, called for her to abandon the plans “before the damage is done”.

The reason why Liverpool's season is sliding off the rails

The Carabao Cup had been lifted by Bruno Guimaraes and Kieran Trippier, Eddie Howe had been drenched in alcohol by Joelinton, and the black-and-white hordes were starting to disperse when a manager reflected on a historic first. Not the victorious one, though. It took us seven, eight, nine months to lose twice in a row,” said Arne Slot. It is perhaps not a statistic to echo through the ages like Newcastle’s 70-year wait for domestic silverware or the 56-year gap between claiming any major honour.
