Multiple Israeli airstrikes targeted areas in Gaza City, resulting in at least 104 fatalities. The casualties included 46 children and 50 others injured in the attacks.
The strikes occurred after Israel’s defence minister blamed Hamas for delays in returning the remains of Israeli captives. The Qassam Brigades reported recovering two additional captives’ bodies during search operations.
A civil defence worker described the aftermath in the Sabra neighbourhood, where rescue efforts continued through the night. Medics confirmed the wounded included women and children among the casualties.
