Multiple Israeli air strikes have killed at least three dozen Palestinians in southern Gaza, health workers said, as officials including a Hamas delegation gathered for high-level ceasefire talks in neighbouring Egypt.

Among the dead were 11 members of a family, including two children, after an air strike hit their home in Khan Younis, according to Nasser Hospital, which received a total of 33 bodies from three strikes in and around the city that also hit tuk-tuks and passers-by.
