Eleven people were killed in an Israeli air strike in central Gaza on Saturday night, including several members of one family, according to hospital authorities. Khalil Al-Daqran, spokesman for Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, told CNN that others had been injured in the strike on a house east of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip. CNN has provided the Israeli military with the reported location of the strike and has asked for comment. Elsewhere, the Israeli military said that it had conducted a strike on Hamas operatives who were operating “inside a command and control center in the area of Daraj Tuffah” that it said was once a school in northern Gaza City. Gaza Civil Defense said Sunday that its teams had retrieved six bodies and a number of injured people from the site, which shelters displaced people. The IDF also reported ground operations in the Beit Lahia area on the northern edge of Gaza, “during which the troops eliminated numerous terrorists and dismantled terror infrastructure sites both above and below ground.”
