Dozens *******, wounded in ******** strikes on Gaza camp

******** air strikes on a tent camp for displaced Palestinians have ******* and wounded 65 people in southern Gaza, the enclave’s civil emergency service reports, as the ******** military says it targeted a ****** command centre.

Residents and medics said a tent encampment near Khan Younis in the Al-Mawasi area, a designated humanitarian zone, was struck by at least four missiles. The camp is crowded with displaced Palestinians who have fled from elsewhere in the territory.

The Gaza civil emergency service said at least 20 tents caught on *****, and missiles caused craters as deep as nine metres. It said the 65 victims included women and children but did not provide a breakdown of deaths and injuries.

There was no immediate comment from the Gaza health ministry, which compiles casualty figures. Earlier, the ******-aligned Shehab News Agency said 40 Palestinians were *******.

“Our teams are still moving out martyrs and wounded from the targeted area. It looks like a new ******** massacre,” a Gaza civil emergency official said.

The official added that teams have been struggling to search for victims who might have been *******.

The ******** military said it “struck significant ****** terrorists who were operating within a command and control centre embedded inside the Humanitarian Area in Khan Younis.”

“The terrorists advanced and carried out ******* attacks against IDF troops and the state of *******,” the statement said, referring to the ******** Defence Forces.

There was no immediate comment by ******, the Islamist group that controlled Gaza before the conflict.

Ambulances raced between the tent camp and a nearby hospital, while ******** jets could still be heard overhead, residents said.

Nearly all of Gaza’s 2.3 million people have been forced from their homes at least once, and some have had to flee as many as 10 times.

The war was triggered on October 7 when ****** attacked *******, ******** 1,200 and taking about 250 hostages, according to ******** tallies. *******’s subsequent ******** on Gaza has ******* more than 40,900 Palestinians, according to the enclave’s health ministry.

The two warring sides each blame the other for a ******** so far to reach a ceasefire that would end the fighting and see the release of hostages.
