Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip have killed at least 32 people, including over a dozen women and children. The total rises to almost 500.

Hamas estimates

Israeli forces have killed 490 Palestinian children in the Gaza Strip in the last 20 days: this was reported by the Gaza press office run by Hamas, the terrorist organisation responsible for the 7 October attacks. It is "one of the most horrific crimes against humanity in modern times," reads a statement, in which Israel is accused of continuing to carry out brutal massacres against defenceless civilians. "In the last twenty days, Israel has committed a shocking act of genocide against children, with 490 children martyred in a series of barbaric attacks. This brings the total number of martyrs during this period to 1,350,' the Islamic militia concludes.

The Israeli army on Sunday evening ordered Palestinians to evacuate several neighbourhoods in Deir al-Balah, in central Gaza, shortly after about 10 rocketswere fired from Gaza, the largest barrage from the territory since Israel resumed the war. The army said about five were intercepted. Hamas' military arm claimed responsibility.

The Palestinian Red Crescent called for an international investigation into the killing of 15 Palestinian doctors in Gaza last month by the Israeli army.

Police said that a rocket fell in the city of Ashkelon and fragments fell in several other areas. Magen emergency service David Adom said that one man was slightly injured. The army later claimed to have hit a rocket launcher in Gaza.

Israeli attacks overnight and on Sunday hit a house in the southern town of Khan Younis, killing five men, five women and five children, according to Nasser Hospital, which received the bodies. Among the victims also a journalist. Mo: Gaza, IDF raid on journalist tent in Khan Yunis, 2 dead

The Israeli air raid also hit a tent in Khan Yunis, where journalists were staying near the Nasser hospital. This was reported by the Palestinian Civil Defence, affiliated to the Interior Ministry of the Gaza Strip. The raid reportedly left two people dead, including a journalist, while others were injured, including two journalists.

Media: 'Israel will let humanitarian aid into Gaza in the coming weeks'

The Israeli authorities will reopen the border crossings with the Gaza Strip to allow the entry of some humanitarian aid for the Palestinian population in the coming weeks. The Ynet website writes this, explaining that it is a decision taken to avoid accusations of violating international law and to avoid problems for commanders taking part in the military operation. Israel has blocked the entry of aid into the Gaza Strip since March, when Hamas refused to extend the first phase of the agreement.

Idf: 'The ambulance we hit had its lights on'

After the video published by Nyt, the Idf released the first results of the investigation into the killing of 15 rescuers that took place two weeks ago in Rafah, in the south of the Strip, when soldiers opened fire on a convoy of ambulances that they had "identified as a threat": the army acknowledges that the claim that the ambulances had their lights off was incorrect and based on the testimony of the soldiers present.

Hamas published a video of two hostages in Gaza for 547 days. US President Donald Trump meanwhile publishes a video of a US air raid in Yemen in which dozens of Houthi fighters are killed.

Netanyahu thanks Hungary

In contrast, Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu praised Hungary for its support of Israel in international bodies. "It defends us in the European Union," he said before boarding the Wing of Zion plane to Washington.

"It defends us at the UN, and no less important, at the corrupt International Criminal Court in The Hague, which is directed against all of us - against Idf soldiers, Idf commanders and the State of Israel." The PM added that Hungary's withdrawal from the ICC last week is "a sign of things to come".
