Five Palestinians killed in Israeli attack on Khan Younis
Our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic are reporting that Israeli forces have bombed a house in the al-Fakhari area of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, killing at least five people.
The killings came as Israel’s military continues its attacks across the Gaza Strip, including a devastating siege on the northern parts of the enclave and air raids on areas near the central Nuseirat camp.
Earlier, at least three people were killed in Jabalia in northern Gaza, according to the Wafa news agency.

Earlier, we reported that Israeli fighter jets bombed a house in the al-Fakhari neighbourhood of Khan Younis, southern Gaza, killing five people.

Israel’s deadly ground assault on northern Gaza continues
Talking to sources on the ground in the battered Jabalia refugee camp, the Israeli military is actively operating. The camp is surrounded and the army has called in more reinforcements.
The military has waged a deadly campaign of air raids on homes. In one of the latest attacks, three Palestinians were killed. The streets of Jabalia are completely strewn with rubble from destroyed high-rise blocks.
The civil defence agency reports the Israelis destroyed key public infrastructure throughout the camp. Some families managed to flee to Beit Lahiya, but they are now trapped there.
The military plan is to isolate Jabalia, Beit Lahiya, and Beit Hanoon from Gaza City, and force residents to flee to the south in order to control the northern Strip.

Qassam Brigades claims attacks on Israeli tanks, troops in north Gaza
The armed wing of Hamas says its fighters targeted Israeli military vehicles and soldiers as they advanced in their latest ground invasion of northern Gaza.
Qassam Brigades said Palestinian fighters used an explosive device to “destroy” a Merkava tank of the Israeli military in the az-Zahra neighbourhood, west of Jabalia, which is being besieged. A second explosive device targeted another in the same area, it said.
The group added its fighters also launched mortar rounds towards Israeli soldiers gathering east of Jabalia refugee camp.
