Israel has killed at least 11 Palestinians in Gaza, including three children, in its strikes across the blockaded enclave.
A family of five — three children and their parents — were killed when an Israeli strike hit a residential apartment in northwest Gaza City, according to Gaza’s civil defence agency.
“The family’s only surviving member is one child, who was not inside the house at the time of the strike,” Mahmoud Bassal, spokesman for the agency, said.
Medical sources at Al-Shifa and Al-Ahli Baptist hospitals said they received the bodies of three Palestinians and two wounded people after Israeli artillery shelling near the Dawla roundabout in the Zeitoun neighbourhood, southeast of Gaza City.
Separately, an Israeli warplane carried out an air strike on an apartment in the Nasr neighbourhood in Gaza City, killing five Palestinians, including a female child, and wounded several others, a medical source at Al-Shifa Hospital told Anadolu Agency.
The air strike destroyed the apartment and damaged nearby homes, witnesses said.

Meanwhile, dozens of Palestinian families fled the Dawla area south of Zeitoun after the Israeli army issued an ultimatum to flee by calling a local resident, local sources told Anadolu agency.
Families left their tents and the remains of their homes in an area that includes the Abu Marahil and Dar al-Salam displacement camps and nearby areas west of Salah al-Din Street.
