The latest violence came with apparent deadlock after a week of indirect talks in Qatar between Israel and the Palestinian resistance group Hamas for a ceasefire after more than 21 months of war.
Civil defence spokesman Mahmoud Bassal told AFP that 10 Palestinians were killed in three separate air strikes in various part of Gaza City, in the territory's north, with 12 more people killed in attacks on the southern area of Khan Younis.
This brings the death toll since the start of the Israeli war on Gaza in October 2023 to over 58,048 and the wounded to nearly 139,000, most of whom are women and children.
The Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of resistance group Islamic Jihad, released footage on Monday that it said showed its fighters firing missiles at an Israeli army command and control centre near Shujaiya.
The vast majority of Gaza's population of more than two million people have been displaced by Israeli occupation forces at least once during the war, which has created dire humanitarian conditions in the territory.
