A multi-storey building in Gaza City collapsed, resulting in at least 12 fatalities and leaving many others trapped under the debris. Reports indicate that 10 families were residing in the building despite prior warnings about its structural safety. Rescue efforts are ongoing, hampered initially by restrictions on equipment entering Gaza.
In related developments, the Israeli military reported the killing of a Hamas commander and another fighter, with civilian casualties also noted. A British charity reported that an Israeli drone strike resulted in a death at a health center in Jabalia.
As rescue operations continue, the focus will shift to the safety of remaining structures in Gaza and the humanitarian response to the affected families. Watch for updates on international aid efforts and potential changes in military actions that could impact civilian safety.
