18 Palestinians killed in Israeli strikes

GAZA — Gaza's civil defense agency said on Sunday that overnight Israeli strikes across the Palestinian territory killed at least 18 people, including four displaced individuals who had sought refuge in a tent.

Agency spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP that rescuers worked through the night, recovering the bodies of 18 people, while dozens more were injured in the "ongoing aggression and Israeli aerial and artillery bombardment "across Gaza.

Bassal said the dead included four people killed in an Israeli strike targeting a house in central Gaza City.
