Israeli forces attack Gaza refugee camps, kill 18

Eleven people, including children, were killed in an Israeli air strike on the Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza as Israel continued to assault the Palestinian territories.

An Israeli jet attack on a residence in Rafah’s Yabna refugee camp was alleged to have killed seven more people, including four children.

ALjazeera had earlier reported that Gaza’s Civil Defence said “a number” of people had been killed and injured in the attack as they worked to pull the people injured, and the bodies of those killed, from under the rubble.
