Dozens of Palestinians killed and wounded in Israeli air attack on Jabalia refugee camp

News Desk: Dozens of Palestinians killed and wounded in Israeli air attack on Jabalia refugee camp, health officials in Gaza said.

Israel’s defence minister says Gaza Strip to go under “total blockade“, including a ban on admitting food and fuel. The intense bombardment has so far displaced more than 120,000 people in the besieged Palestinian enclave.

The Israeli army says 100,000 reserve troops have amassed near Gaza, where Palestinian fighters say they are holding 130 people captive. The latest death toll stands at 560 Palestinians in Gaza, according to health officials, and more than 800 Israelis, according to Israeli medical services. Hamas’s surprise attack came after Israeli settlers stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in recent days and a record number of Palestinians were killed by Israel in recent months.
