At least 50 killed across Gaza over last day

As the world responded to a landmark ICJ ruling declaring Israel’s occupation of the West Bank in violation of international law, Israeli forces continued attacks across Gaza.

At least 24 people were killed in attacks in the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza, according to local authorities.

Other killings included three people in an Israeli raid on a house south of Khan Younis and another Palestinian killed north of Nuseirat. Attacks were also reported in Deir el-Balah.

Video said to show Israeli settlers attacking Palestinian family with bats

Our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic have obtained video footage of an unprovoked attack by Israeli settlers on a Palestinian family south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.

In the video, masked settlers carrying what appear to be baseball bats approach a Palestinian family sitting in front of a home in the Sha’b al-Butm area of Masafer Yatta.

A settler calmly approaches and attacks a Palestinian man in the family. The attackers and another settler then viciously beat a Palestinian woman who tries to stop the attack.

An Israeli soldier appears and points his assault rifle at the injured Palestinians while allowing the settlers to walk away.
