Israel’s bombardment of Gaza by its army, navy and air forces targeted multiple locations in the Palestinian territory’s southern Khan Younis and Rafah areas, hitting residential areas and civilian infrastructure and resulting in a large number of deaths.

According to United Nations report, those killed were in areas where Palestinians were ordered to relocate from northern Gaza by Israeli forces.
