Children fetching water killed in Israeli strike in Gaza, emergency officials say [View all]

Ten people, including six children, have been killed in an Israeli air strike while waiting to fill water containers in central Gaza on Sunday, emergency service officials say.

Their bodies were sent to Nuseirat's al-Awda Hospital, which also treated 16 injured people including seven children, a doctor there said.

Eyewitnesses said a drone fired a missile at a crowd queuing with empty jerry cans next to a water tanker in al-Nuseirat refugee camp.



Unverified footage shared online after the strike showed bloodied children and lifeless bodies, with screams of panic and desperation.
