Various of bodies in body bags on ground outside hospital STORYLINE: At least 23 people were killed in Israeli strikes, the territory's Health Ministry said late Thursday. Their bodies were taken to a hospital in central Gaza, where families and loved ones gathered and mourned. The casualties raise the approximate death toll to 71 from Israeli bombing during the past 24 hours. The Health Ministry says the number could still rise. The bodies were taken to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, the ministry said. Earlier strikes had killed at least 48 people in southern and central Gaza overnight, half of them women and children, the ministry said. Meanwhile, tensions are rising in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, where three gunmen opened fire Thursday morning on a road near a checkpoint, killing one Israeli and wounding at least five, police said. Two of the attackers were killed. A third was found later and detained. European diplomats are stepping up calls for a cease-fire, as alarm grows over the worsening humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip. The war began when Hamas-led militants stormed into southern Israel on Oct. 7, killing some 1,200 people and taking around 250 hostage. About a fourth of some 130 captives still being held are believed to be dead. Israel has laid waste to much of the Palestinian territory in response. Gaza’s Health Ministry estimates more than 29,000 Palestinians have been killed.
