Israeli soldier dies from injuries sustained in Gaza: Army

A 21-year-old soldier injured during combat in the southern Gaza Strip has succumbed to his wounds, the Israeli military says. Captain Yarden Zakay, a platoon commander in the Givati Brigade, was seriously injured on September 17.

In the same incident, four other soldiers were killed, and several others were wounded. The Times of Israel newspaper, citing an army probe, said the soldiers were hit by weaponry that detonated inside a building in Rafah.

This brings the total number of Israeli soldiers killed since October last year to 778.

At least 10 Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli strike targeting the entrance of a school sheltering displaced people in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip, our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic are reporting.

At least 14 killed in Israeli attacks on central Gaza’s Nuseirat

As I’m talking, I can hear a huge explosion just taking place in the Nuseirat refugee camp, which is eight kilometres (about 5 miles) away from Deir el-Balah, where we are right now.

According to medical officials in al-Awda Hospital, at least 14 Palestinians have been killed since the early hours of this morning in just the Nuseirat refugee camp alone. At least 70 others were also wounded.

The area is witnessing huge Israeli attacks from naval warships alongside Israeli ground forces. People are arriving to the hospital in carts pulled by animals, because it’s quite hard for civil defence and front-line emergency workers to reach the area, as Israeli military drones are actively operating there.
