GAZA, Nov. 18 (Xinhua) -- At least 30 Palestinians were killed on Monday in Israeli airstrikes on different areas in the Gaza Strip, said Palestinian sources.
At least 17 Palestinians were killed in an Israeli air raid on a house near Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia in northern Gaza, Palestinian medical sources told Xinhua.
In another Israeli bombing in Beit Lahia, the Civil Defense in Gaza said that two people were killed and dozens of others were wounded.
In the southern Gaza Strip, four Palestinians, including two children, were killed and dozens of others were wounded in an Israeli bombing that targeted a tent housing displaced people in the Mawasi area of Khan Younis, medics from Nasser Hospital in the city told Xinhua.
Three Palestinians were also killed in two separate attacks by Israeli drones east and north of Rafah city, according to Palestinian medical sources.
In central Gaza, medics from al-Awda Hospital told Xinhua that four Palestinians were killed in an Israeli bombing of the Faraj family home north of al-Nuseirat city.
Israel has been launching a large-scale offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip to retaliate against a Hamas rampage through the southern Israeli border on Oct. 7, 2023, during which about 1,200 people were killed and about 250 taken hostage.
The Palestinian death toll from ongoing Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip has risen to 43,922, the Gaza-based health authorities said in a statement on Monday. ■
