A new wave of Israeli strikes across Gaza kills more than 20 people, including an attack on the last major hospital providing critical healthcare in the north.

Gaza's civil defence rescue agency said Thursday that a rash of Israeli air strikes killed at least 40 people, most of them in encampments for displaced civilians, as Israel pressed its offensive in the Palestinian territory.

As a result of Israeli airstrikes on camps in the Gaza Strip, at least 25 people have died, mainly women and children. The attacks took place in areas where refugee camps are located. The Israeli army has not yet responded to these reports.
