Israel kills 81 Palestinians in Gaza in 24 hours

Israel attacks across Gaza have killed at least 81 Palestinians and injured 422 others, according to the enclave’s Health Ministry.

The killings come a day after US President Donald Trump said a ceasefire in Gaza could be reached “within the next week”.

Gaza’s Government Media Office says revelations in the



Israeli media that soldiers were ordered to “deliberately shoot” starving Palestinians seeking aid supplies are further evidence of “war crimes” in Gaza.

The head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) says aid distribution sites operated by the US and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) had created “a killing field”.
