Israeli strike hits Jabalia camp in Gaza

An Israeli strike on Gaza's largest refugee camp killed at least 47 people Tuesday, including, Israel said, a Hamas commander involved in the October 7 attacks.

A large explosion ripped through the densely packed Jabalia camp before nightfall, tearing facades off nearby buildings and leaving a deep, debris-littered crater.

Thousands have died since an unprecedented attack on Israel by Hamas on 7 October that killed 1,400 people, with retalitatory Israeli bombardments leaving more than 8,500 Palestinians dead, according to the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza.
