Medics bury the bodies of Palestinians killed by Israel's invasion and bombing of Gaza during a mass funeral in Rafah, Gaza Strip, December 26, 2023
HUNDREDS more Palestinians were killed today as Israel intensified its air and ground invasion of Gaza.
Gaza’s Health Ministry put the death toll at 195 in the past 24 hours, following a figure of 241 killed in the previous 24. Over 21,100 Palestinians have now been killed since Israel began its assault.
The Israeli attacks took place in areas where Palestinians had been told to seek shelter earlier in the war.
