Dozens dead in Israeli attacks in Gaza, Palestinian agency says

At least 29 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Civil Defence agency reported on Saturday.

Fourteen people were killed in an attack on a police station in the Sheikh Radwan district in the north of Gaza City, spokesman Mahmud Bassal told dpa.

Seven others were killed in the south of the Gaza Strip when a tent, housing internally displaced persons, was fired upon, he said.

The Israeli military said it had attacked commanders and infrastructure of the terrorist organizations Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza. Targets included a weapons depot, a weapons workshop and two Hamas launch pads, the army said.

The information cannot be independently verified.
