Israel kills 111 people across Gaza in less than 24hrs

Gaza health authorities say at least 111 people were killed in Gaza on Saturday by Israeli strikes.

Dozens were reportedly killed in an Israeli airstrike on a residential building in north Gaza on Sunday morning as Israel continues to pound Beirut’s suburbs and southern Lebanon.

Gaza authorities said dozens of people had been killed in a strike on a tower block in Beit Lahia with reports of deadly strikes overnight in al-Nuseirat in central Gaza where at least 10 people were killed and more injured, and further attacks in Rafah.

The Strip continues to be under blockade with the international humanitarian community calling on Israel to urgently improve aid conditions with hospitals struggling to operate amid depleted supplies and attacks on health workers.

Beirut was hit by multiple strikes on its suburbs, known locally as Dahiyeh, on Saturday and Sunday following multiple evacuation orders by the Israeli army. Footage aired on Lebanese networks showed buildings turned into rubble.

Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency said that a 12-storey building in Chiyah neighbourhood was demolished, while a separate strike destroyed buildings in Hadath near Mar Mikhael church.
