Is­raeli strikes over the past 24 hours killed at least 38 peo­ple in Gaza, in­clud­ing a moth­er and her two chil­dren shel­ter­ing in a tent, lo­cal health of­fi­cials said Sun­day, with no da­ta avail­able for a sec­ond straight day from now-in­ac­ces­si­ble hos­pi­tals in the north.

Fur­ther de­tails emerged of the Pales­tin­ian doc­tor who lost nine of her 10 chil­dren in an Is­raeli strike on Fri­day.

Gaza’s Health Min­istry said 3,785 peo­ple have been killed in the ter­ri­to­ry since Is­rael end­ed a cease­fire and re­newed its of­fen­sive in March, vow­ing to de­stroy Hamas and re­turn the 58 hostages it still holds from the Oct. 7, 2023, at­tack that trig­gered the war. Hamas has said it will on­ly re­lease the hostages in ex­change for a last­ing cease­fire and an Is­raeli with­draw­al.

Is­rael al­so blocked the im­port of all food, med­i­cine and fu­el for 2 1/2 months be­fore let­ting a trick­le of aid en­ter last week, af­ter ex­perts’ warn­ings of famine and pres­sure from some of Is­rael’s top al­lies.

U.S. Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty Sec­re­tary Kristi Noem was vis­it­ing Is­rael on Sun­day and was ex­pect­ed to meet with Prime Min­is­ter Ben­jamin Ne­tanyahu.

Is­rael has been pur­su­ing a new plan to tight­ly con­trol all aid to Gaza, which the Unit­ed Na­tions has re­ject­ed. The ex­ec­u­tive di­rec­tor of the U.N. World Food Pro­gram, Cindy Mc­Cain, told CBS she has not seen ev­i­dence to sup­port Is­rael’s claims that Hamas is re­spon­si­ble for the loot­ing of aid trucks. “These peo­ple are des­per­ate, and they see a World Food Pro­gram truck com­ing in and they run for it,” she said.

Is­rael al­so says it plans to seize full con­trol of Gaza and fa­cil­i­tate what it de­scribes as the vol­un­tary mi­gra­tion of much of its pop­u­la­tion of over 2 mil­lion Pales­tini­ans, a plan re­ject­ed by Pales­tini­ans and much of the in­ter­na­tion­al com­mu­ni­ty. Ex­perts say it would like­ly vi­o­late in­ter­na­tion­al law.

More on the killing of a doc­tor’s 9 chil­dren

The new strike on the tent hous­ing dis­placed peo­ple that killed the moth­er and chil­dren oc­curred in the cen­tral city of Deir al-Bal­ah, ac­cord­ing to al-Aqsa Mar­tyrs Hos­pi­tal. A strike in the Ja­baliya area of north­ern Gaza killed at least five, in­clud­ing two women and a child, ac­cord­ing to Gaza’s Health Min­istry.

In Fri­day’s strike, on­ly one of pe­di­a­tri­cian Alaa al-Na­j­jar’s 10 chil­dren sur­vived at their home near the south­ern city of Khan You­nis. The 11-year-old and al-Na­j­jar’s hus­band, al­so a doc­tor, were bad­ly hurt.

The charred re­mains of the chil­dren were put in­to a sin­gle body bag, said a fel­low pe­di­a­tri­cian at Nass­er Hos­pi­tal, Alaa al-Za­yan.

The home was struck min­utes af­ter Ham­di al-Na­j­jar had dri­ven his wife to the hos­pi­tal. His broth­er, Is­mail al-Na­j­jar, was first to ar­rive at the scene.

“They were in­no­cent chil­dren,” the broth­er said, with the youngest 7 months old. “And my broth­er has no busi­ness with (Pales­tin­ian) fac­tions.”

Is­rael on Sat­ur­day said “the claim re­gard­ing harm to un­in­volved civil­ians is un­der re­view.” It says it tries to avoid harm­ing civil­ians and blames Hamas for their deaths be­cause it op­er­ates in dense­ly pop­u­lat­ed ar­eas. There was no im­me­di­ate com­ment from the mil­i­tary on the lat­est strikes.

Al­so Fri­day in Khan You­nis, two staffers of the In­ter­na­tion­al Com­mit­tee of the Red Cross were killed when shelling struck their home, the ICRC said. Is­raeli strikes have killed more than 150 emer­gency re­spon­ders from the Red Cres­cent and Civ­il De­fense, most of them on du­ty, since the war start­ed, ac­cord­ing to the U.N.

“This is not an end­less war,” Is­rael’s mil­i­tary chief of staff, Lt. Gen. Eyal Za­mir, said dur­ing a vis­it to Khan You­nis. Re­cent cease­fire talks in Qatar gained no ground.

Hamas-led mil­i­tants killed some 1,200 peo­ple, most­ly civil­ians, in the Oct. 7 at­tack and ab­duct­ed 251 peo­ple. Around a third of the re­main­ing hostages are be­lieved to be alive, af­ter most of the rest were re­leased in cease­fire agree­ments or oth­er deals.

Is­rael’s 19-month of­fen­sive has killed over 53,000 Pales­tini­ans, ac­cord­ing to Gaza’s Health Min­istry, which says women and chil­dren make up most of the dead. It does not pro­vide fig­ures for the num­ber of civil­ians or com­bat­ants killed.

The of­fen­sive has de­stroyed vast ar­eas of Gaza and dis­placed around 90% of the ter­ri­to­ry’s pop­u­la­tion, of­ten mul­ti­ple times.

A mis­sile from the Houthis

Sep­a­rate­ly, Is­rael’s mil­i­tary said it in­ter­cept­ed a mis­sile fired by Yemen’s Houthi rebels on Sun­day. It trig­gered air raid sirens in Jerusalem and oth­er ar­eas. There were no im­me­di­ate re­ports of ca­su­al­ties or dam­age.

The Iran-backed Houthis have launched re­peat­ed mis­sile at­tacks tar­get­ing Is­rael as well as in­ter­na­tion­al ship­ping in the Red Sea, por­tray­ing it as a re­sponse to Is­rael’s mil­i­tary cam­paign in Gaza. Most of the tar­get­ed ships had no re­la­tion to Is­rael or the con­flict.

The Unit­ed States halt­ed a pun­ish­ing bomb­ing cam­paign against the Houthis ear­li­er this month, say­ing the rebels had pledged to stop at­tack­ing ships. That in­for­mal cease­fire did not in­clude at­tacks on Is­rael.
