Medics say an Israeli airstrike on a tent city housing displaced families in southern Gaza has killed at least 11 Palestinians, including the Hamas-run territory’s police chief.
Three children and two women were also reported to have been among the dead in al-Mawasi, west of the town of Khan Yunis.
The Hamas-run interior ministry condemned what it called the “assassination” of police director-general Mahmoud Salah and his assistant Hussam Shahwan, who it said were “carrying out their humanitarian and national duty.”
The Israeli military said it was looking into the reports.
