The health ministry in Gaza said dozens of people were killed by Israeli air strikes in Gaza City, and further south in Gaza neighbourhoods such as Zawayda and Deir Al-Balah. Hamas-affiliated Al-Aqsa TV quoted medical sources as saying at least 75 Palestinians were killed and 106 hurt in the attacks.

Israel said 31 soldiers had been killed since it began expanded ground operations in Gaza on Oct 27, fighting thousands of Hamas fighters who believe they can hold off Israel’s advance from a warren of tunnels under the enclave.

Lieutenant-Colonel Jonathan Conricus, an Israeli military spokesman, showed reporters what he said was aerial footage of Hamas tunnels and rocket sites at two hospitals in northern Gaza, saying this showed Israel was not responsible for “what’s happening now in northern Gaza”.
