At least six other people killed and many wounded in an Israeli raid on a house in Jabalia al-Nazla in northern Gaza.
At least two members of Gaza’s Civil Defence have been killed in the latest Israeli attacks on the Palestinian enclave, rescue and emergency services say.
A drone strike targeting the Civil Defence headquarters in Gaza City on Tuesday killed firefighter Nabil Bahloul and his son.
Another Civil Defence worker, Najib Sakr, was killed as the Daraj neighbourhood in Gaza City was bombed by Israeli forces.
“We received an emergency stress message … calling for help to extinguish a fire that broke out as a result of an Israeli air strike on a residential building,” said Ahmed al-Madhoun, a member of the Civil Defence.
“We rushed to the scene. On the way, we received a call telling us that the site we were heading to has just been pounded again. We went and found dozens killed, including our fellow Civil Defence team members shredded to pieces.”
