An Israeli strike on a home in Jabaliya northern Gaza killed three siblings aged 6 and under, the Palestinian medics announced.

They were among at least six people killed in Israeli strikes on Tuesday in Gaza.

Gaza’s emergency service says the three children were killed in a strike on a home near a clinic in the urban Jabaliya refugee camp, where Israel has been waging an offensive for over a month.

In the central city of Deir al-Balah, a strike hit a tent on the western side of the city, killing at least two people, including a 15-year-old boy, Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital said. Another strike on a tent in the built-up Nuseirat refugee camp killed a man, the hospital said. An Associated Press journalist counted the three bodies at the hospital.

Another two children have been killed and ten others injured in an Israeli airstrike targeting displaced families' tents west of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.

The occupation army rarely comments on individual strikes, which often kill women and children.

Israel has killed over 43,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, since the war started, according to local health authorities.
