Israeli strikes kill at least 71, Gaza officials say
Overnight Israeli air raids killed at least 71 people and injured at least 50 others, the Palestinian Health Ministry said.
The strikes included attacks on Rafah, near a border crossing controlled by Egypt, and three homes that were bombed in Khan Younis in southern Gaza, official said.
The Israel Defense Forces says it hit Hamas targets.
Khan Younis is an area where the Israeli army has been urging people from northern Gaza to flee to. The border crossing in Rafah has seen thousands of people gather, waiting to cross into Egypt.
