Israeli airstrikes overnight and into Saturday killed at least 23 Palestinians in Gaza, including three children and their parents, whose tent was bombed in Gaza City, health officials said.

The bombardment continued as international warnings grow over Israeli plans to control aid distribution in Gaza, as Israel’s blockade on the territory of more than two million people is in its third month.
