ANKARA (AA) – At least 10 Palestinians were killed, including three aid seekers, and several others were injured in a series of airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Thursday, medics said.

A medical source said five family members were killed in a drone strike in northwestern Khan Younis in southern Gaza.

Three others were killed and a fourth was injured when Israeli forces shelled a group of civilians waiting near an aid distribution center on Salah al-Din Street in central Gaza.

In Gaza City’s al-Tuffah neighborhood, two more civilians were killed and several others critically wounded in a drone strike targeting a gathering of residents in the al-Zarqa area.

Meanwhile, Israeli forces continued demolitions and bombardment in the Zeitoun and Sabra neighborhoods in Gaza City, the official news agency Wafa reported.

Israel has killed more than 62,100 Palestinians in Gaza since October 2023. The military campaign has devastated the enclave, which is facing famine.

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.
