Citing local Palestinian media, Al Jazeera reports that Israeli forces have launched numerous attacks on Gaza in the early hours of this morning.

There are reports of people across Gaza feeling the force of detonations in southern Gaza’s Rafah city, where the Israeli army is deployed and reportedly using explosives to destroy residential structures.

Israeli military aircraft bombed a medical clinic in the east of Gaza City earlier this morning, and warplanes have more recently targeted other areas in the city.

Air strikes and artillery shelling have hit Khan Younis in the south of the territory after an earlier attack on tents sheltering forcibly displaced people killed at least five in the al-Mawasi area, west of Khan Younis. Victims from the attack were reported to be a family of five: Ibrahim Khalil Abu Taima, his wife Hanadi, and their three children, ages 4, 6 and 8.

Israeli artillery has shelled the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza.

Casualties resulting from the latest attacks are not yet known.
