Gaza’s civil defence agency said 22 people were killed in an Israeli strike on Gaza City, while medical sources reported dozens of deaths in another overnight air raid, AFP reports.

“We can confirm that 22 martyrs were transferred (to hospital) after a strike targeted a house… in Sheikh Radwan” neighbourhood of Gaza City, civil defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal said.

Dozens more were killed in another strike at around midnight in northern Gaza, medical sources said. The civil defence has yet to announce a death toll from that strike.
