AI Summary:
At least 71 people were killed overnight and early on Thursday in southern and northern Gaza, health officials say. At least 20 were killed in Khan Younis in the south after Israeli forces struck several houses in the area. Meanwhile, an attack on a family home in the as-Sultan neighbourhood, west of Beit Lahiya, killed at least seven people. UN demands answers On Wednesday, a United Nations foreign staffer was killed and five other workers were wounded in an Israeli air raid on a UN site in central Gaza. The UN humanitarian aid chief, Tom Fletcher, described the attack as “infuriating” the strikes targeted a “clearly designated” UN compound in Gaza, and the UN demands “answers” while “we grieve with the family of our colleague”. Israel’s resumption of attacks drew widespread condemnation, including Netzarim served as a launching pad for many Israeli military operations. The breakdown of the ceasefire has also been met with anger in Israel. Thousands of Israeli protesters massed in Jerusalem on Wednesday accusing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of resuming attacks on Gaza without regard for the safety of captives still held in the coastal enclave.
