The Wafa news agency described the event as a "massacre" following the ignition of tents due to the bombings.

Further reports by Wafa indicate that additional strikes were carried out near Khan Younis in southern Gaza and against residential structures within the Nuseirat refugee camp located in central Gaza.

Al Jazeera Arabic has also reported that an airstrike on a residence in Gaza City led to the deaths of six individuals, including women and children.

Meanwhile, the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory has released a report on war crimes in Gaza.

Speaking in Geneva, Navi Pillay, chairwoman of the UN-backed commission, said Israel “forcibly transferred almost the entire population into small enclosure that is unsafe and uninhabitable”.

“The deliberate use of heavy weapons with large destructive capacity in densely populated areas constitutes an intentional and direct attack on the civilian population.”

Since the start of the offensive, the Israeli forces have killed more than 37,300 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
