“We’re seeing the same pattern of attacks as in the early stages of the conflict, designed to cause maximum casualties,” Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports from Gaza City.

“The latest attacks have targeted entire families as they gather inside their temporary shelters.

“One attack, for example, occurred as a family had their predawn meal before fasting. Homes were targeted in Beit Lahiya, Jabalia, Khan Younis, Rafah and across the Strip,” he reports.

“Injured people have arrived at hospitals en masse and many people are still trapped and missing under the rubble.

“We’re expecting more casualties as the day progresses,” he said.
