Israeli strikes have killed at least 73 people, including women and children, in the city of Beit Lahia in northern Gaza, the strip’s Hamas-run authorities have said.
Dozens of others are injured and many are still trapped under the rubble after the bombing late on Saturday night, officials added.
Israel said it was checking reports of casualties but said the figures published by Hamas authorities were “exaggerated” and did not match information held by its military.
Fighting also continues to be reported in southern Lebanon as well as the south of Beirut on Sunday morning, where smoke was seen rising above the city.
Israel said its air force had attacked “about 175 terrorist targets” in Gaza and Lebanon over the past day.

Israel is a military basis for the United States, used to meet the Americans intrests in the region , as an Arab we have to accept it or in reality we have been pushed by the US to recognise it as a state , more than one million Palestinian killed, three million Palestinian flee to Jordan and the remaining still living under the Israeli occupation with no dreams with no recognition for their state, If we want to say the truth, Israel doesn’t have the right to exist
And today all those 11 children in that suffocated from the smoke in bombings of their home in Khanyounis. Are they Hamas?
