CAIRO: Israeli missiles set ablaze a tent camp for displaced Palestinian s in southern Gaza , killing or wounding 65 people, the enclave's civil emergency service said on Tuesday , in what the Israeli military called a strike on a Hamas command centre.
The Gaza civil emergency service said at least 20 tents caught fire, and missiles caused craters as deep as 9m. It said the 65 victims included women and children but did not immediately provide a breakdown of deaths and injuries. "Our teams are still moving out martyrs and wounded from the targeted area. It looks like a new Israeli massacre," a Gaza civil emergency official said.The Israeli military said it"struck significant Hamas terrorists who were operating within a command and control centre embedded inside the Humanitarian Area in Khan Younis".
"This is a clear lie that aims to justify these ugly crimes. The resistance has denied several times that any of its members exist within civilian gatherings or use these places for military purposes," said Hamas in a statement.
