Eight killed as Israeli tanks advance in Rafah: Reuters

At least eight Palestinians were killed in the southern city of Rafah, as Israeli military vehicles supported by warplanes and drones advance deeper into the western part of the city, Reuters reported.

Residents and Palestinian medical sources were quoted as saying that the tanks have moved into five neighbourhoods, as heavy shelling continued to target tents in al-Mawasi, western Gaza.
Earlier, it was reported that 12 Palestinians were killed as Israeli strikes hit a group of people awaiting an aid convoy to arrive through the Kerem Shalom crossing northeast of Rafah.
