Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have killed at least 198 Palestinians — about 1 in 3 were children.

42 people were killed on Sunday. One man lost his wife and 4 of 5 children: "I heard my son Zain calling: 'Daddy, daddy…' I couldn't turn to look at him because I was trapped."

Israel's attacks in occupied Gaza have displaced 38,000 Palestinians, says the UN. Airstrikes have destroyed residential buildings, leaving at least 2,500 people homeless.

Many have nowhere to go — there are no bomb shelters. "There is no safety in the city."

Israel bombed the main road leading to Gaza's biggest hospital. The health system is already near collapse due to Israel's blockade.

Doctors say some wounded are coming in missing limbs, including children. A health official said: "They are targeting mainly civilians."

The WHO condemned attacks on health workers in Gaza. Israeli airstrikes killed at least 2 doctors — 1 killed alongside family.

Palestinian officials say Israel is deliberately targeting hospitals and infrastructure, and UNRWA says it has refused to open humanitarian corridors.

Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have killed at least 212 Palestinians, incl. 61 children. ~1,500 have been wounded.

Israel has blockaded Gaza for 14 years, denying Gazans the right to flee.

Hospitals are struggling & Gaza's only #COVID19 lab is "no longer functional," the PLO says.
