DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Palestinian and hospital officials said at least 39 people have been killed by Israeli strikes across northern Gaza. The deaths Saturday come a day after at least 25 people were killed in strikes on tent camps and 50 wounded near the southern city of Rafah. Fadel Naem, director of the al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City, told The Associated Press that more than three dozen bodies arrived at the hospital. The Palestinian Civil Defense, an emergency group active in Gaza, said they pulled approximately the same number of bodies from a building hit by an Israeli strike in an eastern neighborhood of Gaza City.
