STORYLINE:

At least 12 Palestinians were killed and several others injured in Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Thursday, according to Palestinian sources.

Israeli aircraft targeted a house behind Kamal Adwan Hospital in the Beit Lahia city in northern Gaza, local sources and eyewitnesses said.

The raid killed seven people and wounded several others, Palestinian Civil Defense spokesperson in Gaza Mahmoud Basal told Xinhua.

According to Basal, Israel launched another airstrike later in the day at a gathering of Palestinians in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood, east of Gaza City, killing three and wounding five others with varying degrees of injuries.

Meanwhile, paramedics told Xinhua that medical workers recovered two bodies of Palestinians killed in an Israeli drone attack on a gathering in Khirbet al-Adas, north of Rafah city, in southern Gaza.

Israel has been conducting a large-scale offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip to retaliate against a Hamas rampage through the southern Israeli border on Oct. 7, 2023, during which about 1,200 people were killed and about 250 taken hostage.
