Palestinian witnesses and journalists report Israeli strikes in Rafah and the central city of Deir al-Balah
Taoiseach Simon Harris has condemned Israel ’s bombing of the Gaza Strip, including Rafah, a day after the International Court of Justice to “immediately halt” its military offensive in the southern city.“The fact that Netanyahu persists in ignoring is a cause of grave concern,” Mr Harris said.
Palestinian witnesses and AFP teams reported Israeli strikes in Rafah and the central city of Deir al-Balah. In its ruling, the ICJ said Israel must “immediately halt its military offensive, and any other action in the Rafah governorate, which may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part”.
Wafa reported that medical sources had confirmed the death toll and said that 17 others had sustained injuries in the attack. Al Jazeera reported that the Israeli military strike struck a family home in Gaza City’s Sabra neighbourhood, killing a woman and injuring other people. It attributed the information to “colleagues on the ground”.
