Deadly air strikes on Gaza, Lebanon kill dozens as Israel faces deadline

Israeli air strikes killed dozens of people in Lebanon and Gaza Sunday, rescuers and authorities said, ahead of a US deadline for improved aid delivery to the Palestinian territory.

Another strike south of the Syrian capital Damascus killed nine people including a Hezbollah commander, a war monitor said.

Rescuers in the Gaza Strip said 13 children were among 30 people killed by Israeli strikes in the territory’s north.

The first hit a house in Jabalia, killing at least 25 people including 13 children and injuring more than 30, Gaza’s civil defence agency said.

At around 6:00 am, “there was a very huge explosion” at the Alloush family home, said relative Abdullah al-Najjar.

“When we arrived here, all the bodies were torn apart.”

Vowing to stop Hamas militants from regrouping in already ravaged north Gaza, Israel on October 6 began a major air and ground assault.
