The Independent|June 08, 2024
Israel has bombarded swathes of central and southern Gaza, while tanks have advanced to the western edges of the border city. In its latest update, the Israeli military said it had killed "dozens" of Hamas militants during operations in al-Bureij refugee camp and the nearby city of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza. Palestinian medics in the area reported that at least 15 civilians had been killed overnight in Israeli airstrikes.

Body count rises as Israeli tanks go deeper into Rafah

In the larger city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, an Israeli airstrike on a house killed eight people and wounded several, including children, medics added.

And in northern Gaza, three Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a Gaza City school building that was sheltering displaced families, rescue workers said. It follows a strike on a United Nations-run school in central Gaza earlier this week that killed dozens of people, according to the Hamasrun health ministry.

In the southernmost city of Rafah, meanwhile, tank-led forces have advanced to the southwest fringes of the city that skirts the Gaza Strip’s border with Egypt, according to accounts from local residents.
