Israeli strikes across the Gaza Strip have killed at least six Palestinians, including children, since dawn on Tuesday, according to Palestinian media.
Warplanes and drones targeted Palestinians near Al-Furqan Mosque in Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, the General Security junction northwest of the city, Al-Zawayda in central Gaza, and the industrial area, where two people were wounded.

Footage circulated by Palestinian media showed a child crying during the bombardment and a father beside the body of his child, who died in an Israeli airstrike. Another video appeared to capture an injured Palestinian being struck again about a minute after a child approached him in an apparent attempt to provide assistance.
