At least 14 reported killed in Israeli strike targeting Hamas war room

Gazan authorities claim at least 14 people have been killed in an Israeli airstrike on a tent encampment in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, without indicating if they are civilians or Hamas operatives.

Residents and medics say the Al-Mawasi humanitarian zone was struck by at least four missiles, leaving craters as deep as nine meters (30 feet). Gaza’s Hamas-run civil emergency service says at least 20 tents caught on fire.

“Our teams are still moving out martyrs and wounded from the targeted area. It looks like a new Israeli massacre,” a Gaza civil emergency official says.

Israel says it struck Hamas terrorists in a command and control center embedded inside the humanitarian zone.
