Israel has conducted an airstrike on a tented encampment in southern Gaza, near Khan Younis, resulting in the deaths of at least 40 people and injuring 60 others, as its military operations in the area continue. The Israeli military claimed the strike targeted a Hamas command center, but the Palestinian group rejected this, calling it a "clear lie."
The status of the UN's polio vaccination campaign in northern Gaza is uncertain after Israeli soldiers detained UN staff at gunpoint and Israeli bulldozers damaged UN vehicles, according to UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini. The campaign, scheduled to begin on Tuesday, has been delayed.
In Israel’s ongoing war on Gaza, at least 40,988 people have been killed and 94,825 injured. In Israel, the October 7 attacks led by Hamas resulted in the deaths of at least 1,139 people, with more than 200 taken hostage
