Istanbul | Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip and southern Lebanon killed at least 25 civilians on Saturday (Sunday AEST), according to Lebanese and Palestinian health authorities, as the United States and allies were racing to conclude delicate ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas.
The strike in the Gaza town of Zawayda killed at least 15 members of a prominent businessman’s family, according to a relative of the family. A spokesman for the Gaza civil defence said at least 17 members of the family had been killed. The Israeli military said it had received reports that a strike had killed civilians and that the incident was “under review”.
