Israeli strikes kill scores in northern and central Gaza

Israeli strikes on central Gaza have killed at least 11 Palestinians, six of them in Maghazi and five in Nuseirat, according to the Wafa news agency.

Two people were also killed in an Israeli air strike on Gaza City.

The strikes come as US President Joe Biden claims that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is “listening” to him regarding his prior warnings against an invasion in Rafah.

Netanyahu is reportedly expected to address a joint session of the US Congress on 24 June, following a formal invitation he received from congress members.

In the West Bank, Israeli forces carried out another deadly raid in Jenin, killing three people, including a 17-year-old boy.
