At least 30 people were killed by Israeli airstrikes in Gaza on Tuesday (24), according to a local hospital and journalists in the enclave.
Among the dead were Bilal and Ousama Fayed, 20-year-old twins who were staying in an apartment building in Al-Bureij.
“They were born together and they died together,” their father, Ahmad Fayed, told CNN outside the morgue at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza, where the bodies were taken.
Several injured children were also taken to hospital after the attack. Two children, Lama Ramadan Saidi, 9, and Zayn Hani Salama, age unknown, were killed, according to the hospital where the bodies were taken.
Also in central Gaza, ten people were killed and 11 wounded in an attack on a house near Al-Ahli Club in Nuseirat, Al-Awda Hospital said.
At least four of the dead were children. The Gaza Civil Defense Authority said earlier that six more people were killed in an Israeli airstrike in Nuseirat.
THE CNN asked the Israel Defense Forces for comment on the strikes. It is unclear what the military was targeting. Central Gaza has been the focus of intense Israeli fire.
Six civilians were also killed in Khan Younis early Tuesday morning, the Civil Defense Authority said. The Israeli Defense Forces told CNN that in this case the target was a Hamas commander.
Further north, in Al Tawam, four people were killed, including a driver from the Civil Defense Directorate, when an airstrike hit an apartment, local journalists reported.
