Gaza’s Health Ministry says at least 241 Palestinians have been killed over the past 24 hours as Israel intensifies its assault on Gaza, where the overall death toll has topped 21,000, including over 8,000 children.

Meanwhile, in the occupied West Bank, an Israeli drone strike has killed six Palestinians in the Nur Shams refugee camp in Tulkarem during an Israeli raid. Al Jazeera reports Israeli forces blocked ambulances from reaching the victims of the strike. The youngest victim was 16 years old. Israeli forces and settlers have killed at least 300 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7.
