GAZA CITY — Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip have killed at least 63 Palestinians, marking the deadliest single day of violence since October. The attacks, which spanned multiple locations, targeted civilian areas, including a designated “safe zone.” One particularly devastating strike overnight killed at least 12 people in a tent in the al-Mawasi camp in southern Khan Younis. The escalating violence has raised concerns about a further humanitarian crisis in the already besieged territory.
