“We have recovered the bodies of 11 martyrs, including four children and three women, after an Israeli warplane hit a three-storey house of the Bustan family,” civil defence agency spokesperson Mahmud Bassal said.
The strike — on a house near the Shujaiya school in the Al-Tuffah neighbourhood of eastern Gaza City — took place at around 1am local time, he said.
