KHAN YOUNIS, Gaza Strip -- A barrage of Israeli airstrikes leveled apartment buildings in a refugee camp near Gaza City on Tuesday, October 31, 2023, with rescuers clawing through the destruction to pull men, women and children from the rubble.Israel said the strike, which targeted a senior Hamas military leader, destroyed a militant command center and an underground tunnel network.The toll from the attack in the Jabaliya camp was not immediately known.
Some 800,000 Palestinians have reportedly fled to the south, but many have not, in part because they say nowhere is safe as Israeli airstrikes in the south have continued to cause civilian deaths. The window to flee may be closing, as Israeli forces reached Gaza’s main north-south highway this week.More than 8,500 Palestinians have been killed in the war, mostly women and minors, the Gaza Health Ministry said Tuesday, without providing a breakdown between civilians and fighters.
