More than 80 Palestinians were killed in Gaza on Wednesday, hospitals said, most in Gaza City. A strike hit a building and tents sheltering displaced families near Firas market, killing at least 20 women and children. Israeli forces continue to advance into the city, which Israel calls Hamas’ last stronghold. The ground offensive aims to release hostages and defeat Hamas. Hundreds of thousands have fled, while many remain in dire conditions. The UN warned that targeting civilian areas may make displacement permanent. Israel says it struck Hamas fighters, but casualties reported are higher than its figures. (PC: BBC)
