An Israeli airstrike killed at least 10 Palestinians in a tent encampment sheltering displaced families in the southern Gaza strip early on Thursday, medics said.
The 10 people, including women and children, were killed in a tent in Al-Mawasi, designated as a humanitarian area in western Khan Younis, according to the medics.
Fifteen people were also wounded, the medics added. The Israeli military has not immediately commented.
The director-general of Gaza's police department Mahmoud Salah and his aide Hussam Shahwan were killed in the airstrike, Hamas-run Al-Aqsa TV reported.
