At least 19 Palestinians killed in Israeli airstrikes across Gaza
GAZA — At least 19 Palestinians were killed in the early hours of Saturday as Israeli forces launched a series of deadly airstrikes and artillery attacks across several areas of the Gaza Strip, the Palestine News and Info Agency (WAFA) reported, citing medical sources. In Gaza City, Israeli artillery shelled the Zarqa area in the east, killing at least one person and injuring others. Five Palestinians were also killed and several wounded when Israeli forces bombed the Al-Shafi'i School in the Asqoula area of Zaytoun, southeast Gaza City. The assault coincided with the destruction of several residential buildings in the area. In central Gaza, Israeli drones struck a home in Al-Bureij refugee camp, killing two people and wounding others. In a separate strike, two Palestinians were killed when warplanes targeted a house in Al-Maghazi camp, with the casualties transferred to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital. The deadliest attack occurred in Al-Mawasi, west of Khan Younis, where Israeli forces targeted tents sheltering displaced civilians, killing seven people and injuring more than ten others in what locals described as a massacre. Elsewhere in Khan Younis, a father and his only son were killed in an airstrike west of the city. Since October 7, 2023, Israel's ongoing war on Gaza, widely condemned by human rights groups as a genocidal campaign, has resulted in the killing and wounding of over 192,000 Palestinians, the majority of them women and children. The conflict has also left more than 10,000 people missing, driven hundreds of thousands from their homes, and caused a famine that has claimed the lives of numerous civilians, including dozens of children. Despite International Court of Justice (ICJ) orders and global appeals to halt its military actions, Israel has continued its devastating offensive, leading to unprecedented humanitarian suffering in Gaza. — BERNAMA-WAFA

Lebanon says 1 killed in Israeli strike on south
BEIRUT: Lebanon said one person was killed on Saturday in an Israeli strike in the country's south, the latest deadly raid despite a ceasefire between Israel and militant group Hezbollah. An 'Israeli enemy drone strike on a vehicle' in Bint Jbeil 'killed one person and wounded two others', Lebanon's health ministry said in a statement carried by the official National News Agency (NNA), noting the toll was provisional. Earlier Saturday, the ministry reported that a separate Israeli drone strike wounded one person in Shebaa, elsewhere in the south, with the NNA saying that raid targeted a house. Israel has kept up its bombardment of Lebanon since a November 27 ceasefire that sought to end more than a year of hostilities with Hezbollah including two months of all-out war that left the Iran-backed group severely weakened. On Thursday, an Israeli strike on a vehicle at the southern entrance of Beirut killed one man and wounded three other people, Lebanon said, as the Israeli army said it hit a 'terrorist' working for Iran. Under the ceasefire deal, Hezbollah was to pull its fighters back north of the Litani river, about 30 kilometres (20 miles) from the Israeli border, leaving the Lebanese army and United Nations peacekeepers as the only armed parties in the region. Israel was required to fully withdraw its troops from the country, but has kept them in five locations in south Lebanon that it deems strategic. Israel has warned that it would keep striking Lebanon until Hezbollah has been disarmed.
