Israeli strikes on Sunday killed 18 people in Gaza, including four at a tent camp for displaced Palestinians, while a stabbing by a Palestinian militant in Tel Aviv left two dead. The attacks have intensified fears of a broader conflict following recent targeted killings of militant leaders in Lebanon and Iran.
In Gaza, strikes hit Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital and nearby residential areas, killing civilians, including children. The Israeli military said the strikes targeted militants and weapons. Meanwhile, Palestinian militants launched projectiles at Israeli communities, causing no casualties.
The conflict has claimed over 39,550 Palestinian lives in Gaza and heightened tensions in the region. Israeli forces have been on high alert, bracing for retaliatory actions from Iran-backed groups, amid calls for restraint to prevent a wider war.
