ISTANBUL (AA) – At least seven people, including children, a pregnant woman, and her unborn child, were killed and several others injured in an overnight Israeli airstrike on a residential apartment in the Tel al-Hawa neighborhood of Gaza City early Wednesday, according to the official Palestinian news agency WAFA.

Separately, Israeli forces targeted an ambulance near Hamad Rehabilitation Hospital in northwestern Gaza City, injuring members of the medical team, according to medical sources cited by the news agency.

Israel has killed more than 59,100 Palestinians, most of them women and children, in the Gaza Strip since October 2023. The military campaign has devastated the enclave, collapsed the health system, and led to severe food shortages.

Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
